## Summary

The Cardiff University is seeking a hydrogen fuel cell system for an aviation project through an open procurement procedure. The system, with a value of £280,000, will be delivered to Cardiff University's Hydrogen and Electric Propulsion Innovation Centre in St Athan, Wales. The tender deadline for submissions is on August 2, 2022.

This tender provides an opportunity for suppliers in the goods category, particularly those specialising in hydrogen fuel cell systems, to compete in delivering innovative solutions to Cardiff University. The procurement process is currently in the active stage, with a focus on researching and developing hybrid propulsion systems for the DragonFLY project at the university's innovation centre.

## Notice

A hydrogen fuel cell system (200-250kW) is required to integrate to form the proposed hybrid propulsion system and to deliver the DragonFLY project outputs and final deliverables. The hydrogen fuel cell system will be delivered to Cardiff University's newly developed Hydrogen and Electric Propulsion Innovation Centre (HEPIC) at St Athan, Wales to perform the required research activities. Suppliers must be able to provide two units of a minimum of 100kW per unit with required accessories to operate as an integrated (combined, 200-250kW) system or as separate individual systems. These individual systems must comprise a DC/DC converter as integrated units to provide 800VDC output after DC/DC.
