   Why Fuel Cells

  • A fuel cell is an electrochemical energy conversion device, similar to a battery in that it produces DC power.
  • It converts the chemical energy from a fuel directly into electricity and heat.
  • When operated directly on hydrogen, the fuel cell produces energy with the only by-product being H²O.
  • Unlike a battery, which is limited to the stored energy within, a fuel cell will generate power as long as fuel is supplied.
  • Although hydrogen is the primary fuel source for fuel cells, the process of fuel reforming allows for the extraction of hydrogen from more widely available fuels such as natural gas and propane or any other hydrogen containing fuel. Fuel cells provide power while reducing the carbon footprint of the location
  • When utilising a hydrogen powered fuel cell, no carbon is emitted at site
  • Fuel Cells increase the uptime of your equipment as they are reliable and run time is dependent on the size of the fuel storage installed.
  • Fuel Cells are a Green Power Alternative
  • Available today to solve many power issues
  • The business case for fuel proves they are a cost effective solution
  • Increase reliability and up times
  • PEM based  Hydrogen fuel cells produce No Carbon emissions
  • Organisations can benefit from the technology now
  • Remove issues associated with diesel fuels
