Development of High-Performance H2 Storage Tank for the Mobility Sector
UBE Corporation Europe, S.A.U. is undertaking an exciting project in collaboration with Blow Molding System, S.L. (BMS), under the project number IDI-20240059. This project is supported by the The Centre for the Development of IIndustrial Technology (CDTI) and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), as part of their aid program for cooperative R&D projects.
The main objective of this ambitious project is to develop an advanced hydrogen storage system for semi-heavy vehicles. This innovative system includes the manufacturing of the tank’s inner liner using a technical compound through enhanced blow molding extrusion technology. Subsequently, a reinforcement treatment with carbon fiber will be applied through filament winding, and specific valves and connectors for the hydrogen tank connection will be designed. To achieve this, Blow Molding System, S.L. (BMS) will contribute its extensive experience in blow molding extrusion for the automotive sector.
This project offers great potential for the future of hydrogen storage in the mobility industry, and further advancements towards more sustainable.
The project is being carried out in Castellón from August 9, 2023, to July 31, 2025, with an approved budget of €566,102.00.
