The need to reduce catalyser load or increase performance are just two targets that research centres and businesses in the industry spend a large part of their research and development efforts on. All these developments need to be tested at various levels, from laboratory level for each one of the components up to prototype level for the final arrays. These tests need specialist equipment and knowledge in order to interpret the results correctly and propose improvements, if necessary. PiCoHiMa has all the equipment and knowledge needed to do these tests. Therefore, PiCoHiMa offers its experience in the field to research centres and businesses, enabling significant time saving.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Sector or area of application<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Development and manufacture of electrodes for fuel cells and electrolysers<\/li>\n<li>Development and manufacture of bipolar panels for fuel cells and electrolysers<\/li>\n<li>Development and manufacture of PEMFC and DMFC fuel cells<\/li>\n<li>Development and manufacture of AE and PEME alkaline electrolysers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Differential skills<\/h4>\n<p>PiCoHiMa Group&#8217;s economical\/financial structure means it can do profiling and testing work on fuel cells and electrolysers at a highly competitive cost.
