What is a Hydrogen Fuel Cell Generator?
A Hydrogen Fuel Cell Generator (FCG) is an electro-chemical engine, which uses a natural chemical reaction to produce electricity, without harmful emissions. It is estimated that the world consumes 80 million, million Kw hours of energy per year, 80% of which causes pollution. Around half of the remaining 20% is generated by nuclear power. There are alternatives in solar and wind power, but as the recent past has shown us, we cannot rely on Mother Nature to be reliable, and the amounts of energy required outstrip the technology available with these methods. This is why the Fuel Cell provides a viable alternative for the future. AFS has already developed, using Zetek Alkaline Fuel Cell Stacks, a free standing static system for research and development institutes and utility companies, providing 2.5 kW of continuous power, which is now commercially available. Larger systems are possible simply by networking the modular stacks together to provide the required power output.
