Green Hydrogen Fuel Cells

Enabling materials for hydrogen fuel cell technology

Powering our way to a net-zero future 

The use of hydrogen technology in transportation is gaining traction. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) come equipped with advantages designed to navigate toward the United Nations' target of a net-zero emission planet by 2050. FCEVs produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants and reduce oil dependence. Fuel cells use hydrogen to propel an electrochemical process for electricity generation and leave behind only water vapor, offering a clean, reliable, quiet, and efficient source of high-quality electric power. 

Syensqo is committed to advancing the development and wider commercialization of hydrogen fuel cell technology for transportation and to power other systems that are increasingly reliant on clean hydrogen, such as backup power units. We have made significant investments in Research and Innovation (R&I) to find new applications for our advanced materials and drive greater adoption of hydrogen fuel cell technology in the market. Syensqo's broad offer for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells is designed to address cost, performance, and durability requirements, from the unit cell, or membrane electrode assembly (MEA), to the fuel cell stack, to balance of plant applications such as air and thermal management systems.
