(Windsor, CT, USA; August 27, 2024)—Infinity Fuel Cell and Hydrogen, Inc. announced today it has been awarded a major new fuel cell development contract as a next step to full production of UUV power systems. Under this effort, Infinity will test and deliver complete modular Beta versions of its patented and proprietary power systems suitable for use with varying size underwater applications and missions. 

This contract, with an unnamed commercial customer, delivers modular products that will tap into a rapidly growing market.  Fortune Business Insight’s recent study projects the market for UUVs to grow from $3.2 billion in 2023 to over $8 billion by 2032, at a cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 13%.

Infinity’s patented air-independent UUV fuel-cell systems support extended mission operations before refueling.  This provides major advantages in the form of substantial cost savings for extended commercial missions, and tactical and logistical advantages for military missions.

“This represents an important step toward our modular product line in a market that has the potential to be very substantial for us over the next few years,” said William F. Smith, CEO and founder of Infinity.
