History

The origins of our idea for fire prevention with fuell cells lie in research work carried out at Airbus in Hamburg. The logical consequence of this was the founding of N2telligence in 2006.

Equally logical is our collaboration with Fuji Electric, which has more than 40 years of experience with fuel cells. In the beginning of 2016 the close colaboration resulted in one joint company – the Fuji N2telligence GmbH.
