A solar-powered mobile refueling station is emerging as the newest pit stop for drones that run on hydrogen.
Michigan-based Sesame Solar’s Drone Refueling Nanogrid (DRN) solution is designed to power unmanned aerial systems (UAS) off the grid, running entirely on solar energy to cut dependence on fuel supply chains.
It can produce its own hydrogen fuel by harvesting moisture from the air through a process known as atmospheric water generation and storing it in solid-state for later use. When drones run low, the DRN can top them up on the spot.
