Developing and validating hydrogen generation and conversion systems requires precise control of temperature, pressure, flow and gas purity – all under strict safety conditions.
Whether testing electrolyzers, fuel cell systems or related components, engineers depend on hydrogen test systems and test equipment that ensure reproducible and comparable results across all power and pressure ranges.
AVL’s testing technologies enable consistent, safe and efficient validation across the entire hydrogen value chain – forming the foundation of our H₂ testing solutions.
Our H₂ testing solutions form a unified ecosystem that covers hydrogen fuel cell and electrolyzer testing – from individual cells to complete systems. Together with our partner Greenlight Innovation, we connect cell and stack testing with system and infrastructure validation, ensuring a consistent workflow across all hydrogen technologies.
Our portfolio includes advanced hydrogen test systems and automation tools as well as modular, containerized, and turnkey test centers, enabling scalable setups from research laboratories to industrial production environments. This integrated approach ensures efficiency, safety, and data consistency across every stage of hydrogen technology development.
With a clear commitment to hydrogen generation technologies, together with Greenlight Innovation, we provide holistic electrolyzer testing solutions from cell to complete system.
Our portfolio covers AEL, PEM, SOEC, and AEM electrolysis technologies, enabling precise efficiency and durability evaluation under real operating conditions.
Integrated data analytics tools support detailed performance assessment and optimization throughout the development process.
