SFC Energy presents “most powerful” hydrogen fuel cell at HANNOVER MESSE 2024
SFC Energy AG is showcasing its powerful hydrogen fuel cell solution at the ongoing HANNOVER MESSE 2024.
SFC Energy claims that the pilot series EFOY H2PowerPack is the company’s most powerful fuel cell solution to date. It said, “The EFOY H2PowerPack (EFOY Hydrogen Power Pack) provides users with a continuous electrical output of 50 kW for their applications. The EFOY H2PowerPack X50 is a reliable, low-maintenance, emission-free and therefore sustainable alternative to environmentally and climate-damaging power generators such as diesel generators.”
Björn Ledergerber, Senior Vice President Hydrogen & Corporate Development at SFC Energy AG said, “The EFOY H2PowerPack X50 incorporates many years of expertise in the development and use of fuel cell technology. Following the series launch of the H2Genset(2) at the beginning of April, SFC is presenting the next product innovation with a range from 50 kW to a maximum of 200 kW.”
Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy AG said, “HANNOVER MESSE is the perfect opportunity to show the advantages of fuel cells in stationary and mobile power generation and the variety of possible applications to an international audience. As a leading and profitable supplier of fuel cell solutions, we benefit considerably from the positive broad perception which we are also enhancing through our international expansion.”
The emission-free energy solution is equipped with standard 400 V AC connections, an integrated lithium battery, a 300-bar hydrogen interface and a user-friendly control panel. Thanks to plug-and-play interfaces, the new energy solution is ready for instant use by customers and easy to operate. To meet even higher power requirements, up to four EFOY H2PowerPacks can be connected and enable an output of up to 200 kW in cluster configuration.
Target applications therefore include emergency power supplies, e.g. for IT backup and in hospitals, as well as mobile power supplies for construction sites and events, and continuous power supplies for self-sufficient companies, for example. SFC Energy is responding to correspondingly high market demand with its push into higher power classes. The transition to series production and the official market introduction are planned for the beginning of 2025, with first pilot installations in the current year.
