Unlocking the Potential of Hydrogen Energy Systems
About
The TEF H2 satellite is dedicated to maximising the potential of hydrogen energy systems and enable their integration within diverse energy ecosystems. It aims to optimise the hydrogen utilisation in multiple settings, including mobile, residential and industrial environments. The basis is in France and managed by CNRS FEMTO-ST, that contributes with its research and testing facilities, as well as its hydrogen-tailored AI applications.
Testing Infrastructure
Both the physical and virtual infrastructure is provided by CNRS FEMTO-ST Research Institute.
Physical
