Scientists from the AGH University of Science and Technology (AGH) in Krakow developed a fuel cell generator for a powered glider powered by hydrogen gas.

The aircraft was designed and constructed under the Applied Research Program of the National Center for Research and Development project. It has already undergone technical tests on the runway. It was the first test of a hydrogen powered fuel cell glider in Poland.

Its energy generator with fuel cells and a hydrogen supply system was constructed by a team from the Faculty of Energy and Fuels of AGH led by Prof. Magdalena Dudek and Dr Eng. Andrzej Raźniak.

The project was implemented in a scientific and industrial consortium, whose leader is Rzeszów University of Technology, and consortium members include: Warsaw University of Technology, AGH University of Science and Technology and Zakład Szybowcowy Jeżów.
