(Windsor, CT USA. April 16, 2025) — Infinity Fuel Cell and Hydrogen, Inc., a global leader in hydrogen fuel cells and electrolyzers for aerospace applications, today announced achievement of a 2,500 hour life test milestone for a NASA  prototype fuel cell intended for use in ground testing to demonstrate a regenerative energy storage system for potential lunar applications. Under NASA’s Game Changing Development Regenerative Fuel Cell project, Infinity has been developing the technology and recently successfully passed this  initial 2,500-hour life test milestone during testing at Infinity  for NASA‘s Glenn Research Center in Cleveland.

Infinity had previously delivered a second fuel cell test article to be used for extended testing at NASA GRC. A goal of testing at NASA and Infinity is to advance the technology for eventual deployment on the lunar surface to power critical systems throughout the lunar night.  Eventual lifetime needs project to be over 50,000 hours and this initial testing is an important step in that process.   

Infinity’s APWR (Advanced Passive Water Removal)fuel cell incorporates patented features that permit passive water management in microgravity and operation in the thermal vacuum of space. Passive operation can dramatically simplify the system, allowing the APWR fuel cell to operate more reliably both in flight to the moon and on the lunar surface.

“This milestone represents another important step in our development of fuel cell technology for NASA and its potential mission deployment,” said William Smith, Infinity’s CEO and founder.

Another important step in flight validation was previously accomplished under a different NASA sponsored Tipping Point effort where Infinity tested the APWR in an Advanced Modular Power and Energy System (AMPES) design for shock, vibration, and thermal vacuum compatibility at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston. Operation was further proven in a successful suborbital flight aboard Blue Origin’s New Shepard sub-orbital mission NS-24 in December 2023.

About Infinity: Founded in 2002, Infinity Fuel Cell and Hydrogen, Inc. is a market leader in the design and manufacture of air-independent, zero gravity electrochemical systems including fuel cell systems for space and underwater applications. Infinity is also developing electrolysis technologies that can generate hydrogen and oxygen directly at 2000psi and above.

Investment Opportunity

Infinity is currently raising capital to commercialize its product line and grow faster. The company has a Regulation Crowdfunding offering online where even non-accredited investors can participate. Equity crowdfunding investments in private placements, and start-up investments in particular, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk and those investors who cannot afford to lose their entire investment should not invest in start-ups.
