Fuel Cell Research Lab

The Fuel Cell Research Lab features a high-capacity fuel storage and delivery system that can store and deliver logistical fuels such as hydrogen, methane, natural gas, and syngas directly to fume hoods for continuous and long-term testing of fuel cells. We are also equipped with a specialty gas monitoring system for safety.
