Innovating Hydrogen Technology Solutions
Lockheed Martin and the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) continue to work together to explore hydrogen fuel cell technology in real-world applications to reduce carbon emissions. Researchers placed an NRL-developed hydrogen fuel cell in a Lockheed Martin Stalker unmanned aerial system, which resulted in increased endurance and range of the aircraft, enhanced operational flexibility, and reduced environmental impact. The NRL hydrogen fuel cell combines hydrogen fuel and air from the environment to produce electricity and water, with the latter as the only byproduct.
