Smoltek Hydrogen completes successful fuel cell electrode test with automotive manufacturer

The tests are a result of the pro­to­type order from Novem­ber 2024, and the cus­tomer has expressed sat­is­fac­tion with the test results. Dis­cus­sions are ongo­ing regard­ing addi­tion­al pro­to­types as the next step in the collaboration.

The recent­ly con­clud­ed test series involved cus­tomized fuel cell elec­trode pro­to­types eval­u­at­ed in small-scale fuel cell setups. The focus was on assess­ing both per­for­mance and dura­bil­i­ty of Smoltek’s pro­pri­etary nanos­truc­ture electrodes.

“We are very pleased that the results meet the customer’s expec­ta­tions. It con­firms the rel­e­vance of our tech­nol­o­gy for fuel cell appli­ca­tions and strength­ens our belief in its com­mer­cial potential,” 

says Elli­nor Ehrn­berg, Pres­i­dent of Smoltek Hydrogen.

Smoltek Hydro­gen has sub­mit­ted a pro­pos­al for con­tin­ued test­ing in a larg­er for­mat and is cur­rent­ly in dis­cus­sions with the cus­tomer on how a poten­tial next phase could be struc­tured. A deci­sion is expect­ed with­in the com­ing months.

“While no for­mal deci­sion yet has been made, we are opti­mistic about con­tin­u­ing the col­lab­o­ra­tion to scale up for more exten­sive pro­to­type orders,” 

Elli­nor Ehrn­berg adds.
