Introduction
My work is on the implementation of fuel cell systems for underwater and maritime applications for which I investigate both the design of such systems and the behavior of fuel cells in such an environment.
I am part of the Swedish Maritime Robotics Centre (SMaRC) that aims to design and develop Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) to achieve missions in unknown waters and perform environmental analyses. My role is to investigate the electrochemical energy storage for such application.

The manuscript presents the conceptual design phase of an unmanned aerial vehicle, with the objective of a systems approach towards the integration of a hydrogen fuel-cell system and Li-ion batteries into an aerodynamically efficient platform representative of future aircraft configurations. Using a classical approach to aircraft design and a combi...
This study combines high-fidelity simulation models with experimental power consumption data to evaluate the performance of Energy Management Strategies (EMS) for fuel cell/battery hybrid Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV). The performance criteria are energy efficiency, power reliability and system degradation. The lack of standardized drive cyc...
Fuel cell-powered Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) represent a growing area of research as fuel cells can increase their endurance. Fuel cells consume hydrogen and oxygen to generate electricity. Typically, the fuel cell generates as much heat as electrical energy, and heat management becomes a crucial parameter when designing AUVs. For underw...
With the increasing interest for zero-emission vehicles, electric boats represent a growing area. Weight is a limiting factor for battery-powered boats, therefore, the use of fuel cell/battery systems is investigated. The present study examines the power requirements, the energy-storage solutions and the sustainability assessment of a light and fas...
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are utilized in a variety of unmanned missions, such as environmental surveys or guarding coastal waters. Currently, the most commonly used energy storage is a secondary battery pack. A potential solution for increasing the range even further on larger AUVs is to utilize hybrid fuel cell/battery systems. Fuel c...
Fuel cells are promising technologies for zero-emission energy conversion. They are used in several applications such as power plants, cars and even submarines. Hydrogen supply is crucial for such systems and using Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell in dead-end mode is a solution to save hydrogen. Since water and impurities accumulate inside the st...
