AFC Energy's H-Power Generator Ready for Deployment in Madrid Construction Site
Key Ideas
- AFC Energy's 45kVA H-Power Generator, incorporating a 30kW fuel cell generator and a 60kWh battery storage unit, passes Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) for deployment at ACCIONA's construction site in Madrid, Spain.
- ACCIONA aims to decarbonize its construction activities and views hydrogen as a key element in its strategy to displace diesel engines from sites, with a focus on sustainability and green practices.
- The partnership between AFC Energy and ACCIONA is set to enhance the operability of the generator at international construction sites, with a strong focus on transitioning to hydrogen power generation to achieve decarbonization goals.
- AFC Energy's outgoing CEO, Adam Bond, looks back on the progress made in Spain over the last two years and the future potential for hydrogen power generation in the construction industry, as the company's leadership undergoes a transition.
AFC Energy's H-Power Generator, equipped with a 30kW fuel cell generator and a 60kWh battery storage unit, successfully completed its Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and validation procedures. The system, designed to support ACCIONA's construction site in Madrid, Spain, is part of efforts to decarbonize construction activities. ACCIONA is committed to reducing its carbon footprint by displacing diesel engines with more sustainable solutions like hydrogen power generation. The collaboration between AFC Energy and ACCIONA aims to drive the adoption of hydrogen technology in the construction industry. The outgoing CEO of AFC Energy, Adam Bond, highlights the progress made and the potential for hydrogen power generation in construction. As the leadership at AFC Energy transitions with CEO Bond stepping down after a decade, the focus remains on engineering optimization and international collaborations to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of power generation in construction sites.
