PowerCell is powering the Spiros IV car for the Shell Eco Marathon.

PowerCell is prodiving the powersource based on its platform for future automotive Fuel Cell products. An 8 cell large concept stack, first of its kind, has been integrated in to the Spiros IV car which will race in Germany (Lausitz) on May 26-28. PowerCell is proud of being partner in the KTH ECO cars team encouraging students, researchers and the industry to find the most energy efficient ideas for vehicle propulsion. Spiros IV is fueled by hydrogen which is transformed to electrical power via the Fuel Cell and its balance of plant systems.

The experiences from the KTH ECO cars team will contribute to the ongoing development program on this next generation platform which is also being developed for reformate fuels.

The Shell Eco-marathon challenges high school and college student teams from around the world to design, build and test energy efficient vehicles. With annual events in the Americas, Europe and Asia, the winners are the teams that go the farthest distance using the least amount of energy.
