The German Aerospace Centre (DLR) has opened the BALIS facility in Empfingen, Germany, designed to develop and test hydrogen fuel cells in the 1.5MW output range.
The facility, which AVL helped design, enables comprehensive analysis of individual components and entire powertrains, such as the fuel cell system, electric motors, refuelling infrastructure, and control and regulation technology.
Additionally, DLR is building its own pioneering megawatt-class electric propulsion system, which will consist of a fuel cell assembly, hydrogen tank, electric motor, control components, and power electronics.
