Embedded Fuel Cell Technology –
Keeping Smartphones Connected
for Longer
Consumers now expect always on power with uninterrupted
connectivity. Imagine freeing people from the confines of the
electrical grid. Intelligent Energy does, and wants to shift the
mind-set to liberate people from the constraints of traditional
energy sources and infrastructures. We believe that embedded
hydrogen fuel cells will provide the solution to satisfy the
growing energy demand for consumers’ power-hungry devices.
This integrated technology has a very high energy density
and is one of the most promising power sources for portable
applications. Our patented planar fuel cell technology can be
configured to form part of a fuel cell and battery hybrid giving
you seamless fuel cell back up power.
Our fuel cells will embed into your device, extending runtime
with no need to change form factor or lose functionality.
Planar fuel cell technology represents a cost-effective portable
solution to powering a wide range of electronic devices such as
smartphones, helping to keep people connected for longer.
