Independent R&D · Calgary, Canada

We take on the part of the problem nobody has solved yet.

AFEL is an independent research and development partner. We take on unproven physics and unknown mechanisms, carrying them from first principles through to instrumented hardware and validated data.

Solid-state hydrogen storage

Hydrogen held inside solid materials rather than high-pressure tanks — safer, denser, and far easier to design into systems where space and safety are critical. Developed alongside National Defence Canada and the University of Calgary.
