This 4 months feasibility project between ACAL Energy Ltd (AE), with its globally innovative fuel cell technology, FlowCath® & TATA Steel (TS), major UK supplier and innovator in added value on steel products, is to explore the opportunity for the use of steel or steel coated materials in FlowCath® which may enable a step change in manufacturing cost whilst improving the quality & perfromance of the technology; thereby accelerating the delivery of the weight and volume developments needed to meet automotive applications specifications. It will focus on completing an initial assessment of material compatibility between steel products with AE’s novel catalysts in general; then specifically explore the feasibility for perfromance improvements using advanced coated material options in AE’s spoecific components & the options for the manufacturing routes for production of tailor made low cost steel parts.
