Hiperbaric, a world leader in high pressure technologies, is actively participating in the II National Hydrogen Congress, to be held in Huelva between February 4 and 6. The company will present its latest advances and R&D axes in the field of hydrogen compression (H2). The company, recognized for its expertise in high-pressure food and beverage processing technology, is strongly committed to hydrogen technology as a key solution for the energy transition.
Hiperbaric, as a world leader in high pressure technology, participates in the II National Hydrogen Congress in Huelva, where it will present how it applies its knowledge and experience in high pressures to develop innovative solutions in the compression of this gas. H2 compression is essential for its efficient storage, transport and distribution, which will boost its adoption as a clean and renewable fuel.
R&D axes in H2 compression
During the National Hydrogen Congress, Hiperbaric presented its main lines of research and development in H2 compression. “Our technological leadership is the result of a constant effort in R&D, which has led us to offer more efficient technologies and solutions to our customers”, explains Carole Tonello, Vice President of Business Development at Hiperbaric.
The main lines are:
- Complete and advanced H2 compression solutions up to 1,000 bar: design and manufacture of high pressure hydrogen compressors capable of reaching pressures up to 1,000 bar. In this sense, the company is researching to increase the flow rate of the compressor unit and the suction at pressures lower than 20 bar.
- After-sales service: Hiperbaric’s reliability and after-sales service are always at the forefront, offering a comprehensive maintenance service with the Uptime System portal.
- Reliability and Safety: Hiperbaric prioritizes reliability and safety in the design of its equipment, guaranteeing safe and continuous operation in industrial applications, storage in fixed trailers, tube trailers and mobility applications such as hydrogen generators for urban bus fleets.
Hiperbaric has installed hydrogen compression systems in Germany, France, Spain, Austria, Sweden and Finland.
Hydrogen Fuel Stations in Spain
In Spain, hydrogen infrastructure development is booming, driven by the potential of hydrogen as a clean and versatile fuel. Although still in its early stages, significant efforts are being made to expand the network of hydrogen refueling stations throughout the country.
According to the Hydrogen Roadmap for Spain, it is expected that by 2030 there will be at least 100 to 150 hydrogen plants, for which an investment of more than 21 billion euros is estimated.
In addition to public hydrogen plants, the private sector is also expected to play an important role in expanding the network, with the construction of new hydrogen refueling stations for both public and private use.
