French hydrogen fuel cell manufacturer Symbio has unveiled its new StackPack 75 fuel cell system. With its 75-kW power output, the StackPack 75 fuel cell system is specially designed for heavy-duty use in urban and intercity buses and coaches, light and medium trucks, as well as off-road handling and construction equipment.
StackPack 75 offers:
- Best-in-class compactness: with a volume of 268 L and a mass of 200 kg, it underpins maximum payload, range and ease of integration.
- High operating temperature (85 °C) improving heat dissipation efficiency and reducing cooling capacity requirements. As a result, the size of the cooling system and its fan power are also reduced, facilitating vehicle integration and saving energy.
- Extensive modularity to meet all technical and operational specifications including the possibility of combining two or more StackPack in a single vehicle to deliver requested power output.
Symbio’s new StackPack 75 is ready for large-scale production at Symbio’s SymphonHy gigafactory, the largest site dedicated to the development and production of hydrogen fuel cells in Europe. The site has obtained the IATF 16949 letter of compliance on the Design and Manufacturing perimeters, testifying to the Group’s technological and industrial maturity. Symbio is the first player in fuel cell technology in Europe, and the second worldwide, to obtain this certification (based on publicly available information). SymphonHy and the development of the StackPack™ 75 technology have been supported by France Relance / France 2030 through the Hy2Tech Important Project of Common European Interest (IPCEI) hydrogen program, aiming to foster the development of high-performance and competitive solutions to promote sustainable and efficient zero-emission mobility.
