H2 Logic A/S has received a funding grant from Danish National Advanced Technology Foundation (DANATF) to develop a 3rd generation fuel cell hybrid system for forklifts that reaches commercial targets and enables a following market introduction. The development will happen in collaboration with Still Danmark A/S, Müller Gas Equipment A/S and Technical University of Denmark.
One of the first markets for fuel cell technology is recognized to be forklifts, where the technology in combination with batteries can enable zero emission and electrical propulsion of forklifts with the same fast refueling as diesel forklifts.
In 2006 H2 Logic commenced field testing of six prototype trucks on hospitals in Denmark providing valuable knowledge and experience for the following system generation developments. Pilot testing of 1st generation systems will commence during summer 2008 in Denmark, while 2nd generation development is ongoing with planned large scale demonstration during 2009.
In the project with support from DANATF a 3rd generation system is to be developed that reaches commercial targets and enables a following market introduction.
The development is done in collaboration with Still Danmark A/S, Müller Gas Equipment A/S and Technical University of Denmark. Still Danmark A/S is a fully owned subsidiary company of the world’s second largest forklift manufacturer KION Group GmbH in Germany.
The funding grant from DANATF supports the H2 Logic 2012 business plan ambition of being positioned within the top3 worldwide for motive power solutions based on hydrogen and fuel cell technology for forklifts and other transport applications.
