VANCOUVER, BC, April 6, 2021 /CNW/ - With the shared goal of
accelerating the transition to cost-effective, zero-emissions
commercial vehicle and power generator technologies, Loop
Energy and BayoTech announced a joint market development
agreement for the deployment of hydrogen vehicles and hydrogen
fueling infrastructure. The collaboration aims at reducing the
complexity of adopting hydrogen electric solutions by providing
fleet operators with clear and actionable strategic direction in
respect to fuel cell powered vehicles and hydrogen fuel
infrastructure.
Under the agreement, Loop and BayoTech will collaborate on
development of market opportunities for deployment of vehicles
manufactured by Loop's OEM customers in combination with on-site
hydrogen generation infrastructure provided by BayoTech. The
initial scope of such market development activities is further
centered around the vertical markets of materials handling,
warehouse and port logistics, including drayage; transit and coach
bus service; urban delivery services; and stationary power
applications.
The initiative forms an integral part of Loop's Total Customer
Care strategy aimed at combining a full portfolio of industry
leading hydrogen fuel cell modules with a 360-degree hydrogen
ecosystem of integration service providers, component suppliers and
fueling solutions to help accelerate time-to-market and reduce
product launch burdens for Loop's OEM customer.
The agreement further supports BayoTech's objective of offering
fleet operators a clear path to market leading cost of ownership
based on the company's unique on-site hydrogen production
solution, best-in-class fuel efficiency and
performance of the vehicles powered by Loop's eFlow™ technology.
BayoTech, headquartered in Albuquerque,
New Mexico, is an energy solutions company committed to
addressing the global need for consistent, cost-effective supply of
hydrogen through modular, scalable, and rapidly deployable hydrogen
production systems.
"Fleet operators are facing increased pressure to transition to
zero-emissions and our partnership with Loop Energy creates an
ecosystem that removes many of the barriers to adoption of hydrogen
fuel cells as a solution," said Stewart
Stewart, Chief Commercial Officer at BayoTech. "Both Loop
and BayoTech are focused on enabling the lowest cost of ownership
solutions to the fleet operator customers. We look forward to
building on the foundation of this important strategic partnership
as we continue to work together towards mass-market adoption of
hydrogen fuel cell technologies."
Loop Energy's proprietary eFlow™ fuel cell modules for
commercial vehicle and stationary power generation have quickly
gained market traction with customers in Asia, Europe,
and North America due to their
market-leading characteristics, including fuel efficiency and
ease-of-integration.
"We believe that hydrogen vehicle cost of ownership and easy,
economical access to the hydrogen fuel are closely intertwined and
are both critical to successful project development," said
George Rubin, Chief Commercial
Officer of Loop Energy. "Our collaboration with BayoTech widens the
hydrogen ecosystem, supports our OEM customers in market and sales
channel development process, and helps bring down the barriers and
the cost of adoption of hydrogen electric solutions by commercial
vehicle operators. This is yet another progressive chapter in the
global acceleration of hydrogen adoption."
