This is how we are advancing the hydrogen economy

To perform electrolysis, we offer water purification plants to remove constituents such as salts or metals from the water to obtain high-purity water.

Our technologies are suitable for applications in all areas, especially in remote regions of the world.

Powerful and versatile: Our electrolyzer stack is capable of producing 23 kilograms of hydrogen per hour and, with a power input of up to 1.25 megawatts, is eminently suited for industrial applications.

The high output pressure of more than 30 bars in our electrolyzer stack eliminates the need for expensive auxiliary units in many applications. From decentralized plants to cover the on-site demand of production facilities and hydrogen filling stations to large-scale industrial solutions — our Bosch electrolyzer stack offers a wide range of possible applications.

Our Optical Gas Spectrometer enables you to detect a wide range of gases at a glance and ensuring versatility for various applications. It delivers fast and accurate results, achieving 0.1% precision in just a few seconds and allowing for extended analysis times for measurements up to 100 ppm. The calibration and analysis are straightforward, thanks to a signal that is strongly linear to gas pressure, concentration, and analysis time. This emission-free device operates inline and at high pressure without the need for probe extraction. Its compact design fits a 19-inch rack, making it compatible with standard setups. Additionally, it is cost-effective, requiring no carrier gas and featuring easy installation and calibration processes.

For many years, Bosch Rexroth has been offering compact, efficient, and low-maintenance system solutions for driving compressors. These compressors are an essential component of hydrogen refueling stations and are therefore relevant for the development of a hydrogen infrastructure. To be able to refuel vehicles quickly and smoothly with hydrogen, it must be compressed on site to up to 900 bar. High availability and high efficiency of the compression process are essential for this.

The Bosch SOFC systems feature a modular design and are prefabricated. The heart of these systems is the SOFC unit consisting of hundreds of series-connected cells. It generates electricity and heat in a highly efficient manner. “SOFC” stands for solid oxide fuel cell. To minimize the planning and installation effort, we combine several of these SOFC units and all relevant auxiliary systems to create a plug-and-play system with an output of 100 kW.

Replacing natural gas condensing boilers with 100% hydrogen-ready boilers (H₂-ready) may be one of the solutions alongside electrification to decarbonize the building sector. H₂-ready boilers are particularly suited for use in renovation of existing homes. An H₂-ready boiler is a gas-fired boiler which can burn either natural gas or pure (100 %) hydrogen. H₂-ready boilers are the key in enabling conversion of the existing gas distribution networks from natural gas to hydrogen.

For several decades, we have specialized in mechatronic components, combining high-precision mechanical systems with state-of-the-art electronic hardware and software. Our portfolio for vehicles ranges from core components, such as the stack, the electric air compressor, the hydrogen gas injector, the anode recirculation blower, the fuel cell control unit to individual sensors and valves. Digital twins of our fuel cell components are already used in the development phase and form the foundation for connected services aimed at reducing downtimes in operation.

The fuel cell power module generates electricity from hydrogen. It is primarily used in commercial vehicles, especially in long-distance applications. The fuel cell power module combines the fuel cell stack, as well as the subsystems of hydrogen and supply, air supply, cooling circuit, and current supply in one compact module. With its impressive service life, robust design, and performance class, the product is designed for commercial vehicle applications. The system complexity of a module of about 700 parts has been compacted into a solution that is easy to integrate.

Particularly in challenging environmental conditions, the hydrogen engine is characterized by its high robustness. The basic structure of the fuel, air and exhaust system can be adopted from existing powertrain solutions using numerous familiar system components. Thus, the hydrogen engine offers great synergies with the established diesel and natural gas engine. In addition to fuel injection, Bosch as a system supplier also offers the electronic control unit, products for the storage and supply of hydrogen and further powertrain components.

We offer production equipment and corresponding testing technologies for fuel cell systems in the areas of cell, stack, components and overall system.

Bosch Manufacturing Solutions is mainly active in the fields of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) and Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) with a global network.
