The new product has a volume of 268 L and a mass of 200 kg. Additionally, high operating temperature (85°C) improves heat dissipation efficiency and reduces cooling capacity requirements. As a result, the size of the cooling system and its fan power are also reduced.

Symbio’s new StackPack 75 is ready for large-scale production at Symbio’s SymphonHy gigafactory. SymphonHy and the development of the StackPack™ 75 technology have been supported by France Relance / France 2030 through the Hy2Tech Important Project of Common European Interest (IPCEI) hydrogen program.
