OPmobility participated in ‘H2 MEET 2024’ at KINTEX, Goyang, from September 25 (Wednesday) to 27 (Friday).
OPmobility, a French automotive technology supplier, aims to challenge the status quo through innovation. The company focuses on sustainable mobility solutions such as alternative energy, new transportation habits, and smarter vehicles. The company is committed to developing more sustainable mobility solutions through continuous innovation. Since 2015, OPmobility has invested around 500 million euros in developing zero-emission hydrogen mobility in rolling mode, aiming to achieve $3 billion in revenue from this sector by 2030.
At the exhibition, OPmobility presented its ‘High-Pressure Hydrogen Storage Unit.’ The unit features a Type IV high-pressure hydrogen tank designed and manufactured with a carbon fiber shell surrounding a liner. With expertise in filament winding, OPmobility received European and international certifications in 2019, following which it secured its first truck contract.
The Type IV tank is 10% lighter than its Type III counterparts, which use metal liners. It enables hydrogen mobility with a 100 km driving range and a hydrogen refill rate of 1 kg per minute.
H2 MEET is a specialized hydrogen industry exhibition for Korean and international companies and institutions involved in hydrogen production, storage, transportation, and utilization. From this year, H2 MEET aims to become a professional event that will enhance participation from global hydrogen industry companies, generate tangible results, and contribute to understanding South Korea’s hydrogen economy ecosystem. Starting this year, it will be held in conjunction with H2WORLD and concurrently with the K-BATTERY SHOW 2024 and HARFKO (Heating Air Conditioning Refrigeration and Fluid Exhibition—Korea) 2024 at KINTEX 1.
