IEEE P1958

IEEE Draft Standard for Hydrogen Fuel Cell Application Framework on Multi-rotor Drones

This standard specifies technical requirements, testing methods, and application specifications for Hydrogen-Powered Unmanned Aerial System (UAS). It covers three key technical areas: Hydrogen-powered cell materials, Hydrogen-powered technology equipment, and multi-rotor UAS integration, including core technical indicators such as material properties, hydrogen storage systems, refueling facilities, flight performance, and safety monitoring. The standard sets performance requirements for hydrogen-powered multi-rotor UAS, including environmental adaptability, dynamic response, and energy conversion efficiency, while standardizing technical parameters for three hydrogen storage methods: high-pressure gaseous, liquid, and solid-state hydrogen storage. It also clarifies implementation requirements for hydrogen refueling station construction, data monitoring, and typical application scenarios, providing a technical basis for the safe application of hydrogen-powered UAS in fields such as agriculture, power line inspection, and island operations.

Other Activities From This Working Group

Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.


No Active Projects

Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.


No Active Standards

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


No Superseded Standards

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


No Inactive-Reserved Standards
