PowerCell Sweden AB has joined the coordinated European development project Camelot in order to accelerate the company’s long-term technological development.
The project’s goal is to develop new materials for future fuel cells. Leading research institutions, universities, and industrial companies, such as BMW, are also involved in the project.
Camelot has received funding from the Fuel Cells and Hydrogen 2 Joint Undertaking, FCH JU, under grant agreement number 875 155, and brings together participants from several European countries. The European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program funds the FCH JU Joint Undertaking. The project’s goal is to develop a new generation of membrane electrode assemblies (MEA), which are a critical component of a fuel cell’s service life, power output, and efficiency.
Since 2017, the German industrial project Autostack Industrie has been developing the next generation of industrialized fuel cell stack technology, with PowerCell being in charge of developing a stack for serial production for the German automotive industry.
By taking part in Camelot, the company is taking another important step forward in its technological development, and the project marks the beginning of the company’s development of future generations of technology.
