Markus Kordel has been working at the DLR Institute of Vehicle Concepts since 2020. He is currently writing his doctoral thesis on applications for a metal hydride refrigeration machine and is leading the H2-Tech-Demo project with Alexander Wimmer.

With his mobile charging station, he showed that fuel cell technology can even be used in disaster exercises. Before his time at DLR, he studied energy technology at RWTH Aachen University and optimized production processes in an internship at NuCellSys (formerly Mercedes-Benz Fuel Cell).
