HydroginMOF: For the Mobile Energy of the Future
HydroginMOF is a material-based hydrogen storage system filled with metal-organic frameworks (MOF), developed by Anadolu İnovasyon R&D. It brings pressure-vessel engineering, adsorption-based storage and system integration together in a single solution.
The system is intended to extend range, mission time and operational flexibility in weight- and volume-constrained mobile applications such as UAVs, UGVs, USVs, cargo drones, mini drones and small power generators.

Why HydroginMOF®?
Low Operating Pressure
30–80 bar operating pressure depending on application and capacity.
Patented Heat Management
Fast filling through dedicated heat management.
Application-Specific Design
A technology adaptable to custom geometries and capacities.
Technology Development Path
From material to system: from the MOFSorb® adsorbent to the application-ready HydroginMOF product family.
1
MOFSorb® adsorbent fill
High-surface-area MOF adsorbents allow hydrogen molecules to be stored inside the porous structure through physical adsorption.
2
HydroginMOF storage vessel
The mechanical pressure vessel, internal fill chamber and supporting components provide safe, controlled storage.
3
Application-ready product family
HydroginMOF vessels of different capacities are integrated with fuel-cell systems to supply hydrogen for energy generation on mobile platforms.
A next-generation system that combines a low-pressure, adsorption-based storage approach with lightweight pressure-vessel engineering and advanced thermal management.
How does HydroginMOF work?
Problem / Solution
The need for greater range on mobile platforms
On mobile platforms in particular, the batteries added to extend range also add extra weight. As a result, beyond a critical threshold they no longer contribute to greater range.
Integrating a hydrogen system with HydroginMOF
Generating energy on the platform reduces the need for extra batteries. On-board energy generation is provided by a hydrogen energy system.
The hydrogen energy system consists of a fuel cell, an electric motor and its critical component, the hydrogen storage unit. As an effective hydrogen storage solution, HydroginMOF enables hydrogen systems to be integrated into mobile platforms.
Fields of Use
HydroginMOF is being developed for applications where mobile hydrogen storage is critical.
UAV / UGV / USV Platforms
Cargo Drones
Mini Drones
Small Power Generators
