GENPORT is the Italian progressive spin-off of Politecnico di Milano, developer and manufacturer of an advanced, lightweight technology for portable generation in medical, defense, emergency, telecommunication, industrial applications.

GENPORT combines Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) and Ion Lithium technologies, to provide advance power solution to any off-grid external equipment up to 1000 Watt, with superior performance, reliability and satisfy such requirements as long life, design flexibility, high energy density, compact configuration, high cycling, high rate discharge, reducing to zero both noise and emissions and operating in extreme environmental conditions.

GENPORT brings the strong expertise and mutual beneficial partnerships of a value chain which includes companies, academic and financial institutions; our corporate partners are: Politecnico di Milano, Genbee, Elemaster, SAATIgroup and Credito Valtellinese.

GENPORT research team has long-term experience in the Fuel Cell technologies.
A strong international scientific activity is resulted in more then 100 scientific publications and 8 patents; 15 years in international and national programs focused on breakthrough technologies and methodologies for improving durability, performance and future mass production of portable fuel cells generators brings Genport be a leading designer, developer and manufacturer of advanced, lightweight technology for portable high energy density electric generation in medical, defence, emergency, telecommunication, industrial applications.
These are our major milestones.
