A new hydrogen compressor designed to meet the growing demands of hydrogen mobility and the transition to the use of renewable energy has been unveiled.
Atlas Copco says its H2Y hydrogen compressor system represents a comprehensive approach that optimises hydrogen mobility.
“The future of hydrogen mobility hinges on robust and reliable compression solutions so these machines are so much more than just products; they are integral to the sustainability of the hydrogen industry. Whether for high-pressure applications or fuelling stations, Atlas Copco’s groundbreaking technology is poised to deliver safe, reliable and efficient hydrogen compression, ensuring continuous operation for a range of critical applications,” states Atlas Copco Compressor Technique Oil Free Air division business line manager JC Lombard.
The hydrogen compressor is a vital component for Fast-fill, Time-fill and Combination-fill hydrogen stations which depend on a steady supply of compressed gas. The company has also integrated its variable speed drive technology and proportional control helping to enhance efficiencies while reducing energy consumption. Lombard notes that this adaptability is particularly crucial in virtual gas pipelines, where consistent performance is essential.
The company affirms that each hydrogen compressor undergoes rigorous factory testing and is containerised to ensure that the machine arrives on-site fully operational. The modular, plug-and-play solution is designed for simplified installation, reducing the time and costs associated with setting up new hydrogen fuelling stations.
