Ukraine

Fraunhofer IWU's scalable, plug-and-play hydrogen microgrid platform designed to bridge the gap between intermittent renewable energy and dependable power supplies. The system converts excess solar and wind power into hydrogen through electrolysis and converts it back to electricity on demand using fuel cells.

A hydrogen microgrid project in South Africa employing similar hydrogen systems to HyGrid, developed through Fraunhofer IWU collaboration with local stakeholders to address the African market's distinct energy needs and provide renewable power independence from unreliable public grids.
