Projects

As a research centre at Graz University of Technology, HyCentA serves as a single point of contact for research and development for the entire hydrogen value chain with research and development tasks of technology, safety and integration into the energy system. The methodological knowledge built up over many years since 2005 allows research and development to be carried out with the necessary specialisation using established simulation tools and the high-performance test infrastructure. The HyCentA research centre has proven know-how in the field of safety, testing, approval, certification and legal framework conditions of hydrogen technologies. Extensive testing services are offered with the test infrastructure: High pressure test stand up to 1000 bar with climate chamber, the hydrogen refuelling infrastructure for 350 and 700 bar, two single cell electrolysis test stands, two stack electrolysis test stands, gas analysis laboratory, two flexible test cells with modern measurement technology and the 160-kW fuel cell system test stand with climate chamber. Do you have research and development questions about electrochemical systems (electrolysis, fuel cells, etc.) and hydrogen technologies, from materials research to the development of prototypes and production processes to application systems, quality tests and market analyses? We provide you with efficient results and solutions: contact us. We also prepare concept and strategy analyses for politics and industry in order to efficiently translate the complex matter of hydrogen technologies into solutions and bring them to the market.
