Individuals, companies and institutions who want to get things moving in the field of fuel cell and hydrogen technology are now joining forces. For sustainable energy supplies. For effective climate protection. For a city with top technology.

The first fuel cell passenger vessel of this size will be supplied by a hydrogen refuelling station also developed as part of the project. In summer 2008 the vessel will start passenger-carrying operations on Hamburg’s Alster Lake and in the historic Speicherstadt warehouse district: safe, reliable and highly efficient, with low noise and vibration levels, without fuels dangerous to water and without the usual air pollutants. Among other things, the project will also create and secure jobs with a future.

With 1.5 kW electrical and 3 kW thermal output, an integrated 15 kW auxiliary boiler and an added heat storage unit, the fuel cell micro CHP unit ensures an optimum energy supply for the house. The heart of the unit is a low-temperature PEM fuel cell. This permits modulating operation, as and when requi- red, while short startup times guarantee long lifetimes. Growing energy needs, rapidly escalating changes in our climate, the high efficiency requirements and CO2 emission level reductions are sufficient motivation for us to put all our energy into pressing ahead with the development of the fuel cell heating system to become a maketable product.
