Energy providers and technology companies must connect renewable supply with reliable production, storage, and use. Each pathway brings different requirements for efficiency, safety, scalability, and cost.
AVL helps customers to accelerate the implementation of autonomous and green technologies and bring efficient, robust, and affordable products to market within a reasonable timeframe and budget. AVL key offerings focus around hydrogen, e-fuels, stationary power generation and energy storage.
Broad energy technology expertise, established reference projects, physical data, and technical models create a system-level understanding across components, subsystems, and plants.
This gives customers an independent view of technology options and their interactions, helping them resolve complexity and define robust solutions for particular needs.
Every project begins with the energy need, operating profile, constraints, and targets. From there, AVL defines the relevant system and component boundaries and evaluates suitable technology paths.
Virtual frontloading makes options and interfaces visible at an early stage. Customers can reduce uncertainty before committing to major hardware decisions.
Hydrogen Production
Producing hydrogen efficiently and reliably requires the right electrolysis stack technology and system architecture. AVL supports the path from initial technology selection to an integrated solution, focusing on PEM, AEM and SOEC approaches on cell, stack and system level.
The result reflects production targets, available energy, safety requirements, operating strategy, and plans for industrialization.
E-Fuel Production
E-fuel production combines multiple conversion and synthesis steps that must operate effectively as one system. AVL helps customers assess suitable process routes, carbon sources, synthesis technologies, downstream treatment, and plant integration.
Early coordination of these elements reveals efficiency potential, manages critical interfaces, and supports scalable production concepts.
Stationary Power Generation
Prime, backup, distributed, and combined heat and power applications place different demands on generation systems. Fuel cell and engine-based technologies are considered together with controls, energy storage, thermal use, and plant interfaces.
AVL develops integrated solutions aligned with load profiles, available fuels, grid conditions, reliability targets, and future requirements focusing on ICE, SOFC and PEMFC technology.
Stationary Battery Applications
Battery energy storage must balance performance, lifetime, reliability, and integration within the wider system.
The architecture connects battery management, controls, safety, thermal behavior, power conversion, and grid interaction across cells, modules, packs, and cabinets. Each solution is aligned with the intended operating profile and applicable certification needs.
We are using our expertise in development, methodology, and tools to advance the progress of batteries and fuel cells. We also analyze the latest technologies intensely during benchmark activities.
We are in constant dialog with political decision makers, research institutes, and our customers’ development departments. Which is why we have very good insight into the market perspective on energy supply and are able to predict future developments accurately. We share the benefits of this knowledge with you – for your future-proof energy systems.
The energy supply revolution is affecting many industries and political entities globally. The issues are the same everywhere, it is only the solutions that vary from region to region. We are heavily involved on all continents – be that on behalf of automotive manufacturers in Asia, or municipalities in Europe and Africa. We are there for you – wherever you are located.
