Hydropilot

Fuel Cell Power Generator

As zero-emission power supply for construction sites

What is the Hydropilot Project?

The Hydropilot project targets the development and pilot demonstration of a 800 kW containerized fuel cell power generator to supply power to electrical machines and equipment on infrastructure contractor Implenia’s construction site. The system will be delivered with two 400 kW FCM400 fuel cell modules Implenia has an option to increase the power capacity of the system to 1600 kW by including two more fuel cell modules. The project has received 15,6 MNOK in funding from ENOVA. The technology will be suitable for a wide range of land-based applications.

VALUE PROPOSITON

Hydropilot

Execute projects without existing electricity infrastructure. Enable off-grid operation of zero emission construction projects.

Reduced diesel consumption on construction sites – bringing the industry closer to zero emissions.

Spreading new zero emissions solutions to the construction sector, and enabling a hydrogen value chain for construction sites.

Contribute to the development of safe commercial systems for transport storage and use of hydrogen.

Hydropilot project

The system will be piloted on one of Implenia’s tunnel construction sites in Norway

The pilot will be supplied with compressed hydrogen trucked in by a local hydrogen supplier

The systems delivers electricity to the construction site grid at 400 V AC for electrical machinery and equipment

Assess potential of utilizing waste heat and water from fuel cells for technical use on construction site

Concept designs to develop standardized MW-scale PEMFC power generators for land based applications
