What is hydrogen fuel cell power?

Hydrogen fuel cells produce electricity by combining hydrogen and oxygen atoms. The hydrogen reacts with oxygen across an electrochemical cell like that of a battery to produce electricity, water, and small amounts of heat. Hydrogen fuel cell power for your lift equipment uses alternate energy sources for your lift equipment are more than just a green initiative move for your business or warehouse operation. This type of technology offers consistent power with zero harmful emissions within a minimum facility footprint.

The use of power sources like lithium-ion batteries and hydrogen fuel cells both help to reduce your facility’s emissions to meet your sustainability goals. Hydrogen fuel cells offer consistent power delivery, refuels quickly within 3 to 5 minutes, and have zero harmful emissions all within a minimum facility footprint.

Lift trucks with hydrogen fuel cell power operate with maximum travel and lift speeds until full depletion, just like ICE trucks. Power degradation as with lithium-ion battery use is also not an issue with hydrogen fuel cells. Downtime is minimal with quick refueling and little scheduled maintenance, typically two to three times a year. Hydrogen fuel cells fit into the standard battery box of your existing lift trucks for an easy switch of your power source.

Getting the most from your lift equipment is essential especially for e-commerce operations today. With fulfillment centers running on a 24/7 schedule, lift equipment usage is at an all time high. Having equipment that can meet that demand with minimum downtime while preventing harmful emissions in your facility is critical. The use of hydrogen fuel cell power can help achieve your thruput goals with minimum downtime and little maintenance, helping you stay ahead of the game.
