Fuel cell technology is a key in the use of green hydrogen and to decarbonisation in general. A power train with fuel cells (FC) shows its advantages over battery-electric drives when the load profile primarily requires constant power and high availability based on short refuelling times. In addition, higher system efficiencies can be achieved with FC than with the combustion of hydrogen in a gas engine. [1]
In the project “Modular fuel cell system test bench for the H2 region Schwarzwald-Baar-Heuberg”, a fuel cell system test bench with 30 kW electrical power was built in cooperation with the Zentrum für Sonnenenergie- und Wasserstoff-Forschung (ZSW) and the industrial partners EKPO and ETO MAGNETIC. The objective is to test FC system elements in order to contribute to the development of products suitable for large-scale production along the entire value chain and the components of the FC system.

The concept of a modular system test bench and an outlook for future development perspectives will be presented.
