Ballard receives orders for 31 fuel cell engines; Stor Energy joins GSREIA
FCmove™-HD+ demonstrates a significant improvement in Ballard technology.
Ballard Power Systems has announced orders for 31 modules, totalling 3 MW of hydrogen fuel cell power, to a leading global construction equipment manufacturer for testing and deployment in various end-use applications.
The modules are expected to be delivered in 2022 and 2023 to match planned integration, testing, and deployment schedules.
The orders include the supply of Ballard’s new FCmove™-HD+ engines, marking an important commercial milestone for Ballard’s latest fuel cell engine launched late last year. The FCmove™-HD+ is more compact and efficient than previous generations, with an expected lower total cost of ownership, making it a competitive, zero-emission solution for broad-reaching medium and heavy-duty applications.
Randy MacEwen, Ballard’s President & CEO, said, “We see significant leverage in our business model where we use the same core competencies, the same core fuel cell technology, and, in some cases, the same fuel cell engines across different business verticals and geographic markets.”
