Plug Power Customers Easily Respond to Hydrogen Demand Peaks With Hybrid GenFuel Hydrogen Fueling Station
October 11 2018 - 6:40AM
Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ:PLUG), a leader in providing energy
solutions that change the way the world moves, has deployed its
third hybrid GenFuel hydrogen station in Cocoa, FL. Based on
continued success with its first two hybrid GenFuel stations in
Texas and California, Plug Power launched a third station that
combines the best attributes of liquid hydrogen storage with
on-site hydrogen generation. With rising demands for hydrogen,
these stations enable customers to respond fast and easily to
hydrogen demand peaks.
Plug Power customers using the hybrid system enjoy
business-enhancing benefits, including lower hydrogen fuel costs,
and the flexibility to easily respond to seasonal business
dynamics, such as those seen within the retail industry. In
addition, the on-site hydrogen generation capability provides
operational continuity throughout logistical emergencies, during
which hydrogen fuel delivery may be interrupted. This attribute is
critical in states like Florida, where hurricane season can have a
significant impact on businesses and their customers.
“Plug Power solutions are designed to keep customer fleets up
and running, significantly improving productivity, efficiency and
the bottom line,” said Andy Marsh, CEO for Plug Power. “With this
deployment, we’re expanding the availability of economical hydrogen
solutions for electric vehicle operating fleets in North
America.”
The GenFuel hybrid fueling station includes a natural gas-fed
reformer and liquid hydrogen storage. The on-site generation
solution reliably produces hydrogen via the modular reformer and
utilizes stored liquid hydrogen to manage demand peaks.
This hybrid fueling station is another example of Plug Power’s
continued efforts to be on the cutting edge of hydrogen technology
in order to expand the global hydrogen economy. To date, Plug Power
GenFuel customers have performed more than 15 million hydrogen
fuels into more than 21,000 electric vehicles. Plug Power has also
completed more than 70 hydrogen fueling stations, each with four to
six hydrogen dispensers.
