One of the joint ventures will be based in Germany and will be majority owned by Voith, while the other will be established in China with Weifu as majority owner.

Voith HySTech GmbH is based at the group’s site in Garching in the state of Bavaria, where hydrogen storage tanks made from carbon composites are currently being made.

In an exclusive interview with T&BB, Patrick Seidel from the Voith Group explains what makes the ‘Plug & Drive H2 Storage System’ – to be showcased at IAA Transportation between 19-25 September – a unique market offering, and the role played by Voith Composites in developing it.
