About
Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Switzerland, EH Group develops advanced hydrogen technologies that enable the transition to cleaner, more resilient energy systems.
At the heart of our work is a uniquely compact and efficient fuel cell stack, designed for high performance and scalable manufacturing. It offers a cost-effective alternative to fossil fuel technologies — especially in sectors where batteries alone are insufficient.
Our solutions are ideally suited to marine vesells and regional aviation, where space, weight, and reliability are critical. They also address growing demand for clean stationary applications, including backup power for data centres, microgrids, and long-duration energy storage.
Our technology is built to accelerate real-world decarbonisation for sectors that can't afford to wait.

Powering Up
EH Group launches our 250kW TRACE fuel cell system, and receives Approval In Principle from marine certification body DNV. Developed using our single 300kW stack, and single balance of plant it offers unrivalled efficiency and a significantly smaller footprint. It is designed to meet the challenges of the maritime sector whilst delivering reliable high power density for data centres/microgrids and other stationary applications. The journey continues!
2023
Automation
Fully automated stack production machinery being developed to meet the growing demands of our clients. The EH team is also expanding to accelerate the development and deployment of our fuel cell solutions. EH Group deployes its first containerised fuel cell solutions for stationary power requirements.
2022
Expansion
To meet the demands of high power applications, EH Group launched its EH-87 fuel cell, offering up to 300kW on a single stack platform. Expanded our facilities in Nyon to 2,000m2 of customized laboratory space, production facilities and greater fuel cell testing capacity. Established EH Group Systems Pvt Ltd at IITM Research Park in Chennai, India to support our fuel cell systems control development and service our growing Asian client base.
2021
Deployment
EH Group established its initial larger lab facilities in Nyon, Switzerland, with test bench facilities running up to 40kW, dedicated hydrogen supply, and semi-automated machinery. The team grew to include a broad spectrum of talented engineers across mechanical, electrical, embedded, and process control domains. Fuel cell stacks and systems were developed for maritime customers, backup-power and others. EH Group Technologies Inc. is established in California to expand our R&D activities with major US universities, and to expand service to our North American clients.
2020
Awards
The European Commmission's EIC Accelerator provided a notable boost to EH Group activities. Deployments of stacks to light commercial vehicles, aerospace and forklift manufacturers commenced. First fuel cell systems deployed for micro-grid stationary and material handling. The DeVigier Foundation granted EHG a "Best Startup in Switzerland" award.
2018-2019
Labwork
Our core team was established, and initial lab space was secured near Lausanne, Switzerland. Fuel cell stacks up to 3kW were designed, tested and characterized. Initial prototypes yielded strong results, and preliminary patents were drafted and secured.
2017
Vision
EH Group was established in May 2017. The Founders' aim - to design and launch a compact, efficient and low cost fuel cell stack in the market capable of meeting and exceeding future decarbonisation targets. Proof of concept stack on a wholly redesigned micro-structure is satisfactorily achieved.
