The Evolution of Hydrogen Fuel Storage Engineering in the UK Transport Market

The increasing number of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) and the larger, heavier batteries they require, has necessitated a move to composite battery enclosures. The use of composites is required to achieve this larger, protective, but still lightweight structure.

Context around existing and emerging safety standards for BEVs, issues around containment of pressure and spread of fire from thermal runaway of Li-Ion cells. Why new composite materials make sense from safety, weight and cost considerations.

To realise composite liquid hydrogen storage, materials that are typically used at a much higher temperature regime require requalification at cryogenic temperatures as low as 20K.

Individual automation solutions are key to improve the efficiency and cost structure of a serial production. New process innovations are a major enabler.

Benefits of Large Format Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) for composites

With a considered approach to composite design and material selection, Carbon Composites can significantly boost the performance of machine metalworking and automated manipulation throughput. Using ultrahigh modulus pitch carbon fibres and innovative process technology new applications for composites have been developed.
