PowerCell Sweden AB has signed a memorandum of understanding, MoU, with the UK company ZeroAvia concerning series deliveries of 100-kW fuel cell stacks starting in 2024.
It is currently estimated that a final agreement could include delivery of 5,000 units over a five-year period. Final commercial terms will be negotiated in the next phase. The parties’ ambition, in accordance with the MoU, is to reach a final agreement in the third quarter of 2022.
ZeroAvia intends to use the fuel cell stacks to produce a 600-kilowatt, low-temperature, hydrogen-electric powertrain that can be used to develop a certified 19-seat, fuel cell-powered commercial aircraft. The memorandum of understanding, MOU, also includes an agreement that PowerCell will establish local production in the UK for final assembly and adaptation of the stacks to ZeroAvia’s fuel cell system and application.
