Fuel cells powering inner-city vehicles

The purpose of this project is to power inner-city delivery cars using pollution-free fuel cell technology (generating electricity by combining hydrogen and oxygen), a technology already explored by ESA for satellites and robotic missions to Mars. Benefits of fuel cell vehicels include quiet, zero-emission vehicles for sensitive traffic areas, smaller vehicles that can navigate narrow and congested streets, while reducing noise and pollution and faster refuelling and lighter weight of fuel cell tanks.

Services to Improve Water Use Efficiency of Vineyards and Deciduous Fruit orchards in South Africa

Measuring air quality, emission, industrial chemical processes and detecting gas leaks with a sensor first used for analysing the martian atmosphere

In 2011 Proba-2’s resistojet fuel tank was repressurised with an influx of nitrogen that had not been stored in a tank under pressure but within a solid material kept at room temperature with no special storage requirements. This ‘cool gas storage’ technology first developed by TNO Defence, Security and Safety is also being transferred to a fire suppression device in information and communication technology (ICT) equipment, usually placed inside data centres, by the company Fire Suppression Inside.
