HES Energy Systems

HES Energy Systems established its first laboratories in Singapore in 2008. From there, it began work with an international customer base in the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) sector, and later broadened its scope to ultra-light portable power systems, and off-grid remote sensor/communications power solutions. HES Energy Systems is regarded as one of the most advanced fuel cell and hydrogen storage technology developers in the world, with system level energy densities that meet or exceed the performance targets set by US Dept. of Energy. It has worked under a US DARPA program in 2010 and 2011, focused on novel power solution development in the field of micro-UAVs, and more recently with a Japanese University for the DARPA robot challenge. The company offers contract R&D services, and has developments running with several leading OEM UAV manufacturers and soldier systems suppliers around the world. It also offers off-the-shelf systems and componentry, as well as fully integrated systems for field deployment. The company has developed active hybrid electronics that manage and optimize energy efficiency among fuel cells, batteries and other energy harvesting devices such high-efficiency solar films.
