Doosan Group is accelerating efforts to build three growth engine businesses to tap opportunities in the hydrogen, drone and robot sectors.

Doosan Fuel Cell, Doosan Mobility Innovation and Doosan Robotics, the subsidiaries of Doosan Group, are implementing hydrogen, drone and robot projects, respectively.

Doosan Fuel Cell has been upgrading hydrogen fuel cells for housing, buildings and power plants. The company is conducting an R&D into applying hydrogen into smart farms and frozen storage centers.

The company is utilizing electricity and heat in the course of converting a combination of hydrogen and oxygen into water.

Technology is capable of not only supplying electricity but also offering heating and hot water to houses and buildings.

Its integrated efficiency rate reaches as high as 85 percent. It output is adjusted with ease.

Doosan Fuel Cell’s representative model M400 with a capacity of 440kW can be adjusted between 10kW and 20kW for one second.

Doosan Mobility Innovation is expanding its business portfolio into the hydrogen-powered robot sector. Hydrogen fuel cell drones, developed by the company, have proved its technology power to have delivered masks to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic from Jeju Island to Mara Island.

Of late, Doosan Mobility Innovation is conducting a joint development involving hydrogen robots capable of extinguishing and monitoring fires in cooperation with CITIC HIC Kaicheng Intelligence Equipment. Since the robot could endure an extreme environment, its development could expand business areas.

Doosan Robotics is aiming to expand its co-bot technology power and market share. The company now owns a line-up of 10 co-bots, the largest number among three Korean co-bot makers.

Doosan Robotics, which released its first co-bot in 2018, has grown to top in Korea. The company aims to top the global robot market by 2025.

It is focusing on upgrading a joint talk sensor designed to measure collision between robot and human being and a vision censor technology, designed to prevent their collision. The company plans to raise localization of hardware and software to 100 percent.

Doosan Group is forecast to make another leap forward by capitalizing on the growth momentum of the hydrogen, drone and robot businesses. Doosan Fuel Cell is the sole enlisted company among the three subsidiaries.

Doosan Mobility Innovation and Doosan Robotics are predicted to be listed on the capital market after bulging its quantitative growth.

A Doosan Group official said the group is flexing its muscles as an axis of a hydrogen economy in an era of hydrogen.

The group will be reborn as a global leader in the hydrogen, drone and robot sectors by conducing R&D on top of diversifying uses of hydrogen fuel cells.
