Hydrogen test field
The ZBT hydrogen test field is used for testing and further developing hydrogen-related technologies. It is home to our hydrogen test filling station and testing facilities for hydrogen storage systems, as well as facilities for the production and use of hydrogen derivatives.
The ZBT has designed and built a high-pressure test facility for optimising hydrogen filling stations on the site of its hydrogen test field. As this is not a commercial filling station, we can test concepts under real conditions, operate various components and further develop filling station technology.
In addition, there are several electrolysis systems on the test field where ideas for optimising electrolysis technologies are being tested.
Our colleagues who work with hydrogen derivatives, namely ammonia and methanol, also have their plants here and can work on a larger scale on the test field than would be possible in the laboratory.
