HYGS: To Provide Hydrogen Electrolyzer and Fuel Cell for Project in Wales
By Fain Hughes, fhughes@knobias.com
Hydrogenics Corporation (HYGS) has been selected to provide a hydrogen electrolyzer and fuel cell for the new Renewable Hydrogen Research and Demonstration Centre at the Baglan Energy Park. The Centre, which is being developed by the University of Glamorgan is the first of its kind in Wales, and will explore the potential use of hydrogen as one of the key fuels of the future and show how hydrogen can be produced from local sources. The project will bring together academic and industry expertise and research, providing a hub for hydrogen business development throughout Wales.
Hydrogenics will provide its HySTAT-10 electrolyzer driven by wind turbines for the production of hydrogen, which will then be used to power a Hydrogenics 1 x HyPM 12 fuel cell power module. The hydrogen will also be used to fuel hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, including a delivery van and a shuttle bus previously integrated with a Hydrogenics fuel cell power module.
