Ballard Power and Fusion Fuel commission H2Évora Green Hydrogen Plant

VANCOUVER, BC and SABUGO, Portugal, Nov. 10, 2022 /CNW/ - Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ:BLDP) (TSX:BLDP.TO) and Fusion Fuel (Nasdaq:HTOO) announced today they completed the interconnection of Fusion Fuel's H2Évora plant to the Portuguese electric grid and successfully commissioned the facility. The demonstration project, comprised of 15 HEVO-Solar units and associated balance of plant equipment, will produce 15 tons of green hydrogen per year and avoid the emission of 135 tons of CO2 annually. The facility includes a 200-kilowatt FCwave^TM fuel cell module supplied by Ballard Power, which is used to convert its green hydrogen into electricity, enabling Fusion Fuel to sell power into the electric grid during periods of peak demand. The integration of Fusion Fuel's solar-to-hydrogen HEVO solution and Ballard's fuel cell technology is a powerful proof of concept for the use of hydrogen as a flexible energy storage vector and off-grid power supply.
