Alkaline Fuel Cell Power” is a company that is currently working on a prototype for a full 4kW hydrogen fuel system, with intentions to mass produce the fuel cells in 2024. Clean energy has become a critical challenge in Europe, with lawmakers and financial institutions demanding action. Alkaline Fuel Cell Power’s innovations are intended to meet the growing need for clean energy by utilising an unique and competitive component design that stands out from the competition.
There are big plans by world governments for hydrogen as a cleaner source of energy, despite its low current adoption rates. Hydrogen-powered alkaline fuel cell technology, such as that being developed by Alkaline Fuel Cell Power, emits no CO2 and is designed for residential and other small to medium-sized power markets. With the cumulative investments in renewable hydrogen in Europe estimated to be as much as €470 billion by 2050, these fuel cells have an opportunity to respond to a previously unfulfilled source of demand.
Alkaline Fuel Cell Power’s fuel cells are hydrogen-powered micro-CHP systems that use alkaline fuel cell technology. Alkaline Fuel Cell Power micro-CHPs are designed with lower material costs than what is currently available, making them more appealing to the consumer market. High-volume production is possible thanks to this low-cost fuel cell manufacturing method.
Hydrogen fuel cells are small power plants that produce electricity and heat in equal amounts for a variety of applications. Alkaline Fuel Cell Power’s models are mostly constructed of nickel, graphite, and plastic. Hydrogen fuel cells do not require combustion, are practically silent, do not vibrate, and produce only clean water as a by-product.
The current global market size for hydrogen is worth in the range of USD 120 billion and analysts estimate clean hydrogen could meet 24% of world energy demand by 2050. The present demand for zero-emission technologies, such as hydrogen fuel cells, far exceeds the capacity of current technology. Low-cost solutions, such as those created by Alkaline Fuel Cell Power, are a feasible option to bridge the demand-supply gap and achieve the world’s zero-emission targets.
