HAN Hydromotive. For 15 years the sustainable alternative on hydrogen!
HAN Hydromotive is a student team from the University of Arnhem and Nijmegen. Our goal? To improve clean, green mobility and promote the use of hydrogen.
We believe in a cleaner and greener future through hydrogen. To prove this, we are competing in the Shell Eco-marathon. HAN Hydromotive is building an ultra-efficient vehicle and using it to race against the top in Europe. In this race, international student teams compete to see who has designed the most efficient vehicle. In short, working with today's students on tomorrow's future!
H2 Challenge
- 9 October 2023.
Four of our enthusiastic team members participated in the H2 Challenge. With third place in the H2 Challenge, our team members showed that driving on hydrogen is indeed possible! Our team members had a wonderful experience, and were able to tell a lot about our project.
In the hydrogen challenge, teams compete against each other, using…
HAN Open dagen
Also in 2023 and 2024, our car can be admired at the HAN's open days and evenings. Be welcome on the dates below at Ruitenberglaan 29 in Arnhem! Our team members can tell you all about how we get hydrogen on the road! You can also ask them all about the Automotive study programme. Maybe this is something for you!
Open days from 10:00 to 14:00:

ACE Student Awards Event
HAN Hydromotive was among the teams present at the ACE Student Awards. Here, we showed the crowd our HM 23, which took second place at the Shell Eco-marathon.
Research and development for our planet!
At HAN Hydromotive, we do more than just tinker with an efficient vehicle. We develop together with our partners; new parts, research better and cleaner ways to generate hydrogen, and here we are building a better future for people and nature!
Recently, we started researching an even lighter 3d printable material. This LW- PLA should be 60% lighter than current 3d printed parts. At the same time, it must also be strong enough, and able to withstand heat.
In another study, we looked for alternative sustainable ways of generating hydrogen. Together with the region and the municipality of Arnhem, we are making hydrogen generation cleaner, and easier!
