Munich, 21.05.2024 – Siqens GmbH, one of the pioneers in the segment of environmentally friendly, methanol-powered fuel cells and in decentralized hydrogen production and supply, is continuously filling its order books.

The Munich-based company, which is seeing increasing demand for both fuel cells and systems for hydrogen separation and purification, has just received orders for ECOPORT 800 fuel cell systems from Swedish commercial enterprises and Swiss authorities.

At the same time, the hydrogen specialists, who offer a highly efficient and extremely cost-effective alternative to electrolysis with their EHS technology for electrochemical hydrogen separation and purification and can therefore also make a significant contribution to the maintenance and use of existing gas infrastructures, are in advanced talks with interested parties from Saudi Arabia and have announced the conclusion of a MoU. The company is also in negotiations with other interested parties from the United Arab Emirates and German-speaking countries.
According to Siqens, around 250 ECOPORT systems are currently being used in various fields of application, particularly in traffic monitoring and control.

ECPORT fuel cells are based on a proprietary, patented technology and are used in off-grid, emergency power and mobile applications, usually combined with a battery as an integrated, fully automated system.
Gaps in supply from photovoltaics and wind can thus be reliably bridged and batteries can be significantly reduced in size.
This fuel cell technology is an ideal replacement for conventional diesel generators.
The hydrogen required to generate energy is obtained directly in the system from liquid methanol.
ECOPORT users benefit from easy handling, low maintenance and low fuel consumption.
They also make a decisive contribution to drastically reducing CO2 emissions.
Renewable methanol even enables climate-neutral operation.

About Siqens:

SIQENS, founded in Munich in 2012, is a leading provider of methanol fuel cells and electrochemical hydrogen separation (EHS) technology.
The company’s methanol fuel cell modules (Ecoport) are used for emergency power supply in safety-critical applications and locations without a connection to the power grid.
Based on the patented high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane (HT-PEM) technology portfolio for power generation, SIQENS offers solutions for the separation and purification of hydrogen at the point of use from various source gases – for example from hydrogen admixtures in the natural gas grid or reformate gases from methanol and biogas.
The SIQENS technology portfolio addresses the challenge of hydrogen supply over the last mile: Decarbonizing power generation, transport and industry by reducing the cost of hydrogen supply.
