Fuel Cells

Fuel cells work in a similar way to batteries, meaning that energy is generated by a chemical reaction, in this case hydrogen and oxygen react to produce electricity, heat and water — this process is also called 'cold combustion'.

• Hydrogen can be produced in an environmentally friendly way from regenerative sources such as biogas, which reduces CO2 emissions.
• Suitable for use in hygiene-critical sectors such as the pharmaceutical and food industries.
• Average service life of 10,000 operating hours, reducing life cycle costs and the environmental impact.
• High availability makes them perfect for tough multi-shift operations, such as production environments or intensive logistics services, as they can be refuelled with hydrogen in just 1-3 minutes.
• Infrastructure for hydrogen refuelling requires less space thanks to the elimination of battery charging stations/battery rooms, and as battery changes are not required the handling of fuel cells is safer for users.
