NASA and Teledyne hydrogen fuel cell partnership

Overview

NASA and Teledyne Energy Systems have entered a partnership to advance the Hydrogen Electrical Power System (HEPS). This air-independent hydrogen fuel cell is designed to generate electricity in environments without a terrestrial atmosphere, such as the Moon and deep space.

The collaboration involves NASA’s Glenn Research Center and Johnson Space Center to transition the technology from Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5 to TRL 7. Reaching this level will require demonstrating the system as a prototype in space-relevant operational environments. The technology is intended to support lunar habitats, surface infrastructure, and long-duration exploration missions by providing dependable, scalable energy for life support and scientific instruments.
