Hydrogen-Powered UAVs
Utilizing Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology in Drones
Our autonomous UAV platforms can be outfitted with hydrogen fuel cells, developed in partnership with Bright Energy, allowing for long-endurance flights of up to 2 hours.
Our hydrogen-powered drones offer numerous benefits for industrial applications:
- Extended Range & Flight Duration – With up to 120 minutes of flight time, our drone platforms can cover larger areas and collect more data in a single mission.
- BVLOS-Ready – Enhanced endurance enables operations beyond visual line of sight.
- Rapid refueling – Hydrogen canisters can be replenished much faster than recharging batteries.
- Minimal Maintenance – The lightweight and durable hydrogen canisters require little upkeep, making them suitable for challenging environments.
- Eco-Friendly – Hydrogen fuel cells emit no harmful pollutants and operate quietly with minimal heat output.
