IE-SOAR™ 1.2 is part of our lightweight product range of hydrogen fuel cells for drones. Our zero-emission fuel cell modules provide a unique solution to extend flight times to drones presently constrained by the limitations of batteries.
This air-cooled (AC) PEM fuel cell technology runs on hydrogen and ambient air to produce clean DC power in a cost effective, robust and lightweight package. The modules have a higher energy to mass ratio than batteries, enabling UAVs to be refuelled in minutes.
By replacing the battery with hydrogen fuel cell power modules, flight durations of over three times can be achieved with hydrogen fuel cells for drones. The modules are scalable and can be integrated into your UAV platform without compromising payload placement, providing a natural solution for a wide range of industries using multi-rotor, fixed wing or proprietary designed UAVs.
The IE-SOAR 1.2 modules deliver zero-emission power and can work in parallel to reach higher power outputs.
