Mann+Hummel joins Hydrogen Council

Jan. 16, 2020
The company intends to leverage investments in fuel cells and hydrogen to facilitate an exit from fossil fuels and nuclear power.

Mann+Hummel joined the Hydrogen Council. As the first CEO-led global initiative of its kind, the Hydrogen Council was founded in 2017 at the World Economic Forum in Davos. More than 80 leading energy, transportation, and industrial companies are currently members. Joining forces with government policymakers, international authorities, and the public, the council aims to establish hydrogen as a solution to facilitate the exit from fossil fuels and nuclear power, and to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement.

“We believe hydrogen plays a crucial role in limiting CO2 emissions. As a member of the Hydrogen Council, we are delighted to be sharing our innovations centered on protecting fuel cells and jointly invigorating the global debate,” said Kurk Wilks, president and CEO, Mann+Hummel.

The filtration expert draws on many years of experience engineering cost-optimized system solutions to extend the life and durability of fuel cells. “Systems have to be durable, reliable, and cost-effective for fuel cell technology to be widely accepted on the market. We at Mann+Hummel have developed an innovative air duct system for the cathode path to protect sensitive components and ensure the fuel cell has a highly efficient supply of clean air,” said Dr. Michael Harenbrock, principal expert electric mobility.
