This portal page aggregates news, information, companies, products, services and business opportunities relevant to stationary / fixed position fuel cell battery chargers. There are a number of companies developing stationary fuel cell battery chargers worldwide and there are a number of opportunities to become part of the supply chain for these systems including:
Fuel cells offer a number of advantages for battery charging applications:
- They produce a pure sine wave of current
- Very low noise and vibrations(compared with generators)
- A variety of fuels can be used, including:
- Emissions (compared with generators)
- No NOx, SOx or particulates
- Zero carbon or very low CO2 depending upon fuel
- Power is available as long as there is fuel
- Depending upon technology, they can operate in extreme environments from -20°C to 50°C
- Systems can be integrated with existing renewable energy technologies as hybrids or renewable onsite hydrogen generation to provide a complete standalone unit
- Load follow and thus do not overcharge, extending battery life (reduced power management)
