Renewable energies
With its conductivity and thermal conductivity properties, expanded metal supports the energy transition through efficient hydrogen technologies.
Ihre AnsprechpartnerExpanded metal for the energy transition – Green hydrogen is a key component in building a global energy system based on renewable energies.
Expanded metal is an essential component in the production of sustainable hydrogen using water electrolysis. In addition, the hydrogen obtained can be converted into electrical energy using state-of-the-art fuel cell technology.
Expanded metal has many natural properties that are ideal for use in an electrolysis or fuel cell.
In addition to the resource-saving and cost-efficient production of the expanded metal, the good flowability from three sides at the tear-off edge, the high electrical conductivity and also the excellent heat dissipation are three of the advantages of the expanded metal with regard to its use in renewable energies.
Expanded metal grids made of titanium as well as nickel or stainless steel are frequently used.
