Dutch Ministry of Transport grants NedStack pilot order

The Dutch directorate of the Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management – Rijkswaterstaat – has granted the consortium NedStack fuel cell technology and HyGear BV, both from Arnhem, the Netherlands, a € 440.000,00 order, in order to develop and produce a universal PEM fuel cell power generator with integrated bio-ethanol reformer.

Minister Eurlings of Transport, Public Works and Water Management handed over the symbolic cashier’s check to Mrs. Margien Storm van Leeuwen, Sales and Marketing Manager of NedStack  during the event “Dag van Maarssen”.
The power generator, ranging from 8 to 35 kW peak power, will be multi-purpose for all kind of situations where back-up and or autonomous power is required, such as powering road works, utility works, back-up systems, and for powering special events.

The generator is deliverable including bio-ethanol reformer or as stand-alone hydrogen operated unit. This provides optimal flexibility to the customer. NedStack and HyGear will build the so called Uniflex unit in close cooperation with their Dutch strategic partners Bredenoord Aggregaten (Apeldoorn), Exendis BV (Ede), Air Products (Rotterdam).
