Mahle Powertrain expands hydrogen powertrain testing capabilities at Northampton facility

Mahle Powertrain, the engineering subsidiary of the Mahle Group, is expanding its Northampton facility to include a dedicated hydrogen powertrain testing capability.

The facility can hold two tube-trailers on-site with rapid switch-over functionality, to ensure a near-continuous supply of hydrogen, and features upgraded engine dynamometers with a 900kW, 4,000Nm nominal capacity. These updates support the growing demand for hydrogen powertrain development and testing for both light and heavy-duty applications.

Currently, the facility is used for developing hydrogen fuel cell systems, hydrogen combustion engines and testing hydrogen-fueled vehicles.
