What goes into designing a complete PEM fuel cell system?
In this episode of Hyfindr Tech Talks, Christoph Ley (AE Driven) joins Steven Oji (Hyfindr) to break down the essential components and processes that make up the Balance of Plant (BoP) in a PEM fuel cell system. They explain how everything—from managing high-pressure hydrogen to cooling and air supply—is integrated to make the fuel cell stack function efficiently.
You’ll learn about:
The core function and components of a PEM fuel cell.
What the Balance of Plant (BoP) includes (anode, cathode, cooling, and power electronics).
How high-pressure hydrogen is regulated for the anode system.
The role of the cathode system in providing oxygen and membrane hydration.
The challenges and timeline involved in selecting the right components for a system design.
This episode is perfect for engineers, researchers, and hydrogen professionals interested in the architecture, integration, and development of functional fuel cell systems.
