SHPT Launches Fuel Cell Systems for Hydrogen-Powered UAV Project in Germany
SHPT is deploying its new low-power closed-loop air-cooled fuel cell systems in a hydrogen-powered UAV inspection project in Germany. This marks a strategic expansion from the automotive sector to the low-altitude economy.
The F-series fuel cell products, with a power range of 1kW to 60kW, are compatible with various UAV models and target the industrial UAV market, which requires long endurance and service cycles. Each system has a rated power of 6kW, operates efficiently in temperatures from -20℃ to 40℃, and allows for hydrogen refueling in 3-5 minutes.
SHPT has already developed a 25kg-class hydrogen UAV for applications like photovoltaic inspections in Inner Mongolia, offering over 1 hour of endurance. The company plans to explore applications in diverse sectors including logistics, emergency rescue, and more, while strengthening its position in the global hydrogen energy supply chain.
