Consulting and studies<\/h1>\n

Would you like to use hydrogen technologies safely, but lack in-depth information on regulations, technology or market developments?<\/h4>\n

Whether you have initial ideas or concrete projects, we advise you along the entire innovation chain: from selecting suitable technologies, infrastructure planning and safety requirements to life cycle analysis and approval issues. Together with you, we analyse potential, identify relevant standards and develop scientifically sound decision-making bases \u2013 for your company, your municipality or your region. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Technology consulting for hydrogen technologies<\/h2>\n

Which technology is right for your application \u2013 and how can it be integrated in a meaningful way?<\/p>\n


We provide technology-neutral advice on the selection, design and combination of various hydrogen technologies<\/strong> \u2013 from materials and components to electrolysers and fuel cell stacks to complete systems and infrastructures. We also provide sound and practical answers to questions about integration <\/strong>into existing infrastructures, product development<\/strong> or operational conditions. All of this also applies to questions about hydrogen derivatives such as ammonia and synthetic methane. <\/p>\n

<\/br>In workshops <\/strong>and dialogue formats, we work with you to develop solutions \u2013 for your company, your region or your project.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Regulation, safety & approval<\/h2>\n

Are you planning a hydrogen plant but wondering what regulatory requirements you need to consider?<\/p>\n


We support you in the design, certification and approval<\/strong> of hydrogen technologies. Whether it’s a test bench, production plant or filling station \u2013 we advise you on safety requirements, approval processes and practical implementation. Our expertise ranges from the development and qualification of automated leak detection methods to workshops on regulatory issues, approval procedures and operational safety concepts. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Standardisation<\/h2>\n

Standardisation is a prerequisite for safety, acceptance and marketability.<\/strong><\/p>\n


The ZBT is actively involved in national and international standardisation processes, where it contributes its experience from research, operations and project work. Our involvement includes technical working groups<\/strong> at ISO and DIN, particularly on topics such as hydrogen quality, interfaces between filling stations and vehicles, protocols and communication standards. <\/p>\n

<\/br><\/p>\n

\n

In addition, ZBT was involved in drafting the statement<\/strong> on the General Administrative Regulation (AVV)<\/em> for the implementation of the Ordinance on the Quality and Labelling of Motor Fuels and Fuels in Germany (10th BImSchV \/ DIN EN 17124:2019). Our experience from research, operations and projects thus flows directly into the further development of relevant regulations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Systemic analyses & studies<\/h2>\n

Would you like to know how hydrogen systems fit into larger contexts \u2013 economically, ecologically, and technically?<\/p>\n


We carry out systemic and techno-economic<\/strong> analyses along the entire hydrogen value chain. These include, among other things: <\/p>\n
