Hydrogen and fuel cell technologies made in Baden-Württemberg - that's what the Cluster Fuel Cell BW is all about. The network brings together companies, research institutes, the public sector and associations and aims to promote the development, industrialization and application of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
Hydrogen as an energy source is a key element for the success of the transition towards an emission-free energy and mobility system. Hydrogen will be used worldwide to reduce CO2 emissions across several sectors in industry, heat supply and mobility - especially in fields of application that are difficult to electrify. The development of a new hydrogen economy offers great economic potential for Baden-Württemberg as an industrial location: innovative solutions are required along the entire value chain in order to produce, store, distribute and use hydrogen.
With professional network management, the Cluster Fuel Cell BW bundles all activities and expertise for the development and market ramp-up of hydrogen and fuel cell technology in Baden-Württemberg. Founded in 2013, the cluster is now an important driving force in the state and creates knowledge transfer in the industry. Together with all relevant players, the cluster focuses on the scaling of hydrogen technologies, from components to systems and plants.
The core task of the cluster is to link relevant players in the region and beyond. The aim is to jointly initiate research and demonstration projects and thus drive forward the industrialization and market launch of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies. The cluster supports you in finding the right cooperation partner for your project.
The Cluster Fuel Cell BW provides access to a large network within the hydrogen sector. Companies, research institutions and other players from Baden-Württemberg with activities in the field of hydrogen and fuel cell technology can become cluster partners. The cluster links players not only within Baden-Württemberg but also beyond the borders, for example via cooperation with hydrogen clusters abroad.
