The newly founded joint venture EKPO Fuel Cell Technologies (EKPO) is a full-service supplier of fuel cell stacks and components. Our technology, our applications, and our products for fuel cells are based on expertise of more than two decades. Combined, we have been in business for more than 200 years. We have a keen understanding of our customers' activities and are fully conversant with the exacting standards that apply within the automotive sector.
