Hospitality

Reliable and “green” power sources are invaluable commodities in the hospitality industry, as interruptions to the grid can lead to significant loss of revenue. Many hotels are turning to on-site fuel cell power plants as a source of baseload power. FuelCell Energy power plants are ideal for hotel properties, as the Ultra-Clean power plants generate not only electricity for the facility, but also considerable interest from hotel guests who appreciate the “green” aspect of the fuel cell power plant. In addition, FuelCell Energy's Direct FuelCell® (DFC®) power systems are low profile and generate so little noise pollution that they are virtually unnoticeable.

As an added benefit to the Ultra-Clean electrical power generation capabilities of the system, waste heat produced within the fuel cell can be utilized for the hotel's hot water or space heating needs, eliminating the need for boilers or water heaters on the property. The heat can even be used to heat large swimming pools that are typical of hotel properties. Review one of FuelCell Energy’s installation spotlights for more information.
