Siltrax has launched the next phase of development for its silicon-based fuel cell technology following a $10m investment round.
Unlike traditional fuel cells, Siltrax uses silicon-based bipolar plates which are reported to take advantage of the material’s “lightweight and durable nature, mechanical and chemical stability and ability to withstand high temperatures and corrosive environments.”
H2 View understands the systems can leverage existing photovoltaic (PV) supply chains for raw materials and production equipment, allowing Siltrax to utilise existing processes and techniques to further optimise manufacturing processes and reduce the overall cost of fuel cell production.
