Certification and innovation: Cetil expertise in hydrogen distribution
Hydrogen mobility: opportunities and challenges
The hydrogen mobility sector is strategic in the context of decaruration, but remains demanding:
-
Advanced technologies: Strong pressure (up to 1,000 bars) and the diffusion of hydrogen requires great precision and rigorous certifications in metrology and safety;
-
High costs: the implementation of infrastructure, combined with a still limited market, requires substantial subsidies to make investments profitable.
Cetil is distinguished by its flexibility and its commitment to provide solutions adapted to the specific needs of the first hydrogen infrastructure. Thus, it offers a solution that overcomes these obstacles.
Cetil, pioneer in hydrogen mobility and fuel measurement
With almost 70 years of experience, Cetil has established itself as an essential player in the design and manufacture of fuel measurement equipment. His in -depth expertise, among other things in hydrogen, illustrates his desire to contribute to the energy transition in Europe.
Expertise at the service of regulation and innovation
For more than 40 years, Cetil has designed, manufactured and marketing distribution and measurement systems recognized for their precision and reliability. This experience allows him to actively participate in technical associations and to influence the development of regulations and standards in the fuel sector.
Among its most recent contributions:
-
The ET30 H2 distributor, suitable for the complexities of challenges such as the HRS Mobile to supply various vehicles (cars, bus, trucks, trains), designed with or without thermal exchanger, with cooling solutions adapted to each project.
-
The H2FS tax system, which, from 2025, will facilitate legal transactions between companies for the loading and unloading of Tubes or CGEM.
These solutions respond to international standards such as OIML R139 or certifications obtained in the Netherlands, Germany and recently in France.
Growth supported by engineering and R&D
With a team of engineers representing 17 % of its workforce, Cetil is investing in research and development, such as the solution for the mobile service station. Its ability to develop its own hardware and software solutions allows it to quickly meet the needs of its customers, while maintaining high quality standards.
This is evidenced by the growth of its workforce, from 50 to more than 70 employees since 2019, and its ability to maintain a well -supplied inventory to provide spare parts quickly, often during the day.
A vision for the future
Cetil aims to become the European leader in the distribution and measurement of hydrogen. His strategy consists of:
-
offer metrologically and quality certified products;
-
focus on Europe;
-
standardize products while facilitating their adaptability;
-
Exhaust your capacities with new installations and hires.
The company will present its solutions during the show Hyvolution 2025 (stand 4P98)thus consolidating its central role in hydrogen mobility.
A reinforced international presence
With a long trajectory abroad, the company has also provided LNG and GNC distributors for stations of major players such as Engie and Air Liquide.
In conclusion, Cetil embodies the alliance of innovation, experience and commitment to the service of sustainable mobility. Its solutions, robust and certified, meet the complex challenges of the sector while actively contributing to establishing quality and security standards in industry. With Cetil, hydrogen becomes an accessible and reliable reality.
