Hydrogen Overview

Dynetek works with many of the world's largest OEMs in design, development and manufacture of leading edge storage capabilities for compressed hydrogen for fuel cell and internal combustion engines.

Dynetek provides safe, certified and cost-effective hydrogen storage for automotive, transit buses, stationary storage and bulk hauling applications in pressures ranging from 3000psi to (200bar) to 6500psi (450bar).

Dynetek successfully developed a 12500psi (825bar) cylinder for stationary storage applications to be used in conjunction with a 10000psi (700bar) onboard storage system.

Dynetek, together with its customers, has demonstrated the commercial suitability of compressed hydrogen storage as the best alternative for the success of the hydrogen economy.

Hydrogen Fuel Storage Systems

Dynetek delivers value and innovation with its compressed hydrogen fuel storage systems. Dynetek provides its customers with the ability to increase volumes housed by storing compressed gases at high pressure allowing the customer to dispense this same gas at lower pressures.

Systems and components are certified to and compliant with industry standards.

Today, Dynetek has several hydrogen storage systems operating around the world. In the transit bus market, we we are part of the Clean Urban Tranport for Europe (CUTE) project, providing 30 hydrogen systems for the Citaro fuel cell buses in operation throughout Europe. In the automobile market, we are storing hydrogen in the Ford Focus Fuel Cell vehicle, the Volkswagen type Bora, Nissan Xterra, 2000 Mercedes Benz Necar, Ford Focus FCV, Toyota FCHV and the Ford Hydrogen ICE vehicle as examples.
