The National Hydrogen Council meets at cellcentric in Nabern
Kichheim/Teck-Nabern – cellcentric is pleased to welcome the National Hydrogen Council at its company site in Nabern from 24.05.22 to 25.05.22 and to host its council meeting.
On Wednesday, June 29, 2022, cellcentric celebrated the move of cellcentric Fuel Cell Canada Inc. to a new location in Burnaby, near Vancouver, Canada, with a grand opening. The state-of-the-art facility will be the new home of the Canadian subsidiary’s Research & Development, Manufacturing, Supply Chain Management, Finance, Human Resources and IT functions. Two floors and a total area of approximately 56,727 square feet will house seven test stands, as well as a manual and an automated production line. The building is located in the newly constructed Riverbend Industrial Park and provides cellcentric with the space it needs to expand development and production at the Canadian site.
The move in June 2022 coincided with the ramp up of production tests at the new location. In the lead up to this milestone, machines and production facilities were calibrated and prepared for commissioning in the preceding six months.
cellcentric CEO Dr Matthias Jurytko, COO Lars Johansson, CCO Prof. Dr Christian Mohrdieck and CEO cellcentric Fuel Cell Canada Inc. Andrea Engelen, as well as employees, project partners and political representatives, including Mike Hurley (Mayor Burnaby), Honorable Jonathan Wilkinson (Minister of Natural Resources) and Honorable Bruce Ralston (Minister of Energy of British Columbia) attended the opening ceremony.
cellcentric has set itself the goal of becoming a leading global manufacturer of fuel cells and thus making a decisive contribution to climate-neutral and sustainable transportation by the year 2050. In doing so, cellcentric focuses on the development, production and marketing of fuel cell systems for use in heavy-duty commercial vehicles as well as for other applications with comparable requirements.
In this context, cellcentric welcomes the work of the NWR, which is of high importance for the development of the hydrogen ecosystem. The bundling and coordination of all forces is a prerequisite for jointly advancing the topic of hydrogen at the required speed. For cellcentric, this is an important basis to ensure the successful use of its own products in the various applications.
