HYNOLOGY, launched in May 2022 and based in the Grenoble area of France, is an innovative company dedicated to accelerating the energy transition through advanced hydrogen technologies. The company specializes in the industrial production of active electrochemical components for fuel cells, particularly targeting heavy mobility applications, and for the production of green hydrogen via electrolysis. Recognizing a significant shift in hydrogen technology applications from passenger cars to heavy-duty sectors, HYNOLOGY addresses the critical need for components with extended lifespans, surpassing traditional considerations of cost and performance.

The company's core offerings include Catalyst Coated Membranes (CCM), Gas Diffusion Electrodes (GDEs), and Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEAs), which are vital for Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolysis and PEM fuel cell technologies. These components are meticulously developed and manufactured to meet the demanding requirements of various hydrogen systems. HYNOLOGY is actively working towards establishing a full-scale industrial production plant in the Grenoble region by 2030, with laboratory production already underway since early 2023 to serve initial customer demands, and a pilot line anticipated before 2026.

Beyond manufacturing, HYNOLOGY provides comprehensive Research & Development services, offering tailored solutions for electrochemical components. This includes the formulation of catalytic inks, advanced deposition processes, and rigorous electrochemical characterization using dedicated test benches. Additionally, the company supplies specialized testing equipment, such as fuel cell and electrolyzer test cells with various active surface areas, and educational kits designed for academic and professional training in the hydrogen cycle.

HYNOLOGY is also engaged in strategic collaborations, exemplified by its partnership with Hycco® on the Ademe-funded "NeGerHy" project. This initiative aims to qualify essential fuel cell components—MEAs from HYNOLOGY and Bipolar Plates from Hycco®—to deliver significantly more powerful and perfectly interfaced technologies to the French hydrogen market, representing a substantial step forward in innovation for sustainable energy solutions.
