H₂ storage solutions from VAKO – with maximum safety and low life cycle costs

Storage systems offering maximum efficiency thanks to German manufacturing and engineering.

Hydrogen is the energy source of the future! However, it needs reliable and durable storage solutions to be economically viable. For more than 40 years, VAKO has been developing and manufacturing high-quality hydrogen storage systems that are used worldwide in industry, filling stations, energy projects, and research..

High Pressure Vessel

Our type 1 hydrogen vessels meet the strictest safety and quality standards.

Moreover, our testing concept significantly reduces recurring testing costs while ensuring maximum operational reliability. 

This makes investments in hydrogen projects predictable, efficient, and sustainably economical. 

Hydrogen storage tank

Tailor-made storage solutions for a wide range of applications

With diameters of up to 4,500 mm, lengths of up to 45,000 mm and operating pressures of up to 330 bar, we offer customized storage vessels for a wide range of applications: from electrolysis systems and filling stations to advanced industrial and specialty projects.

Tailor-made H₂ storage systems

For industrial and energy projects

End-to-end service

Engineering, manufacturing, installation, service

Testing concept

With up to 80% lower testing costs and maximum safety

Hydrogen competency

Proven product quality since 1980

precision welding

Strong joints for safety

Welding demands absolute reliability. Our submerged arc welding processes ensure high-quality joints.

container construction

Precision down to the last detail

Quality begins with minutiae. We first create a clean basis for all further processing by selectively milling out the root layers. Imperfections are avoided and even the smallest deviations are corrected. The result: pressure vessels built from the inside-out to deliver precision, reliability, and a long service life.

Perfection on the surface

The inner surface ultimately dictates the quality of the entire vessel.

MAKING HYDROGEN USABLE

The hydrogen world.

Our hydrogen storage systems are used wherever tomorrow’s energy is needed: in electrolysis plants, at filling stations for buses, trucks and cars, in industry, for on-site energy generation systems, or in logistics. VAKO offers safe, certified and economical storage solutions for every application, whether large or small.
