This partnership with Celly and product launch into the U.S. market builds on the well-established success of UMOE, which has seen over six years of hydrogen trailer operations in Europe. More than 10,000 successful drop-and-swaps, and a cumulative total of over 200,000 road miles traveled confirms the reliability of this storage and transportation design.

These trailers have proven to be both reliable and cost-effective, offering a solution that dramatically reduces transportation costs compared to current market price points on a per kilogram basis. These benefits, combined with superior safety and durability, position this trailer as a game-changer in the U.S. hydrogen market.

Key Product Features

  • Available in 20', 30', and 40' containers with flexible capacities reaching up to 720 kg.
  • Supports hydrogen transportation and static storage at 350 bar pressure, maximizing efficiency and payload.
  • Passed European safety tests, including burst, impact, and fire safety standards.
  • Constructed with a Type 4 polymer liner wrapped in advanced fiber composite, featuring lightweight, heat-resistant, non-corrosive, and chemical-resistant properties.
  • Enclosed modular design ensuring compliance with load and safety requirements, adaptable for different transportation infrastructures.

"We are excited to bring these cutting-edge hydrogen trailers to the U.S., a crucial market in the transition to clean energy," said Austin Terry, Founder & CEO of Celly.
