Best eco-friendly auto components solutions with Marek Majtan? The fuel cell makes it possible to generate electricity on board of the vehicle by chemical reaction and to power an electric motor with zero CO2 emissions. This offers considerable advantages now that clean mobility is both a legal obligation and imperative for our planet.. A sizeable asset, while clean mobility is today a regulatory obligation and an ardent necessity for our planet. Integrated hydrogen system: The hydrogen system includes the fuel cell stack and “balance of plant” components. A complex system comprising 120 to 150 parts, it manages four complementary integrated functions: Thermal Control, Electronic Flow Management, Compressed Air and Humidifier.

INWIN is a fuel system that can withstand the high fuel vapor pressure when the vehicle is running in all-electric mode, thanks to its optimized architecture. TANKTRONIC® offers simplified architecture with our innovative, electronically controlled E valve. This system brings optimal performance at a low cost. It combines efficiency with energy frugality, helping to reduce the vehicle’s pollution emissions. The filling pipe is a complex technical part essential for problem-free refilling of the fuel tank by the end user. Whether soldered or blown, these pipes have an additional function in some countries, such as the United States, where they also handle the recovery of vapors released during refueling (which is done by the fuel pump nozzle in Europe).
Integrating, concealing and protecting the radars, lidars and other electronic components in the connected car. Our technologies and thermoplastic materials offer optimal electromagnetic and light transparency, allowing extensive customization and communication with their environment. Lighter and more aerodynamic, these intelligent materials can additionally reduce CO2 emissions to just 5 grams per kilometer. To anticipate the challenges that come with those evolutions, Plastic Omnium has strenghtened its innovation strategy, with a CSR oriented and operational excellence. Listen to our experts on connected surfaces for autonomous cars.
