Their Success Story
Mound Technical Solutions has applied its principals’ experience in Department of Energy tritium technology and testing of weapons components to advance fuel cell technology. The recipient of $1.1 million in grants from Ohio’s Third Frontier technology commercialization program, the company has developed, patented and introduced to the marketplace a line of fuel cell test instruments.
Collaborating partners in the Third Frontier project included Mound-based Inorganic Specialists as well as Case Western Reserve University, the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI), Edison Materials and Technology Center, MMCIC, Sinclair Community College and Battelle to develop the system.
Established in 1996 by Doug and Amy McClelland, Mound Technical Solutions has been working – along with UDRI, the Air Force Research Laboratory at Wright Patterson Air Force Base and others – to become a comprehensive, one-stop provider of fuel cell test services for manufacturers, consumers and integrators. The company’s objective is to help the commercialization process and ensure the functionality of fuel cell power units of all technology platforms.
