The Hydrogenics Advantage

The best fuel cell stack is only the best fuel cell stack if it is functioning in an optimized system environment. Hydrogenics’ has extensive expertise, not only in the fundamentals of fuel cell stack design, but also in the overall system design that gets the greatest efficiency and the highest performance out of the fuel cell stack. This know-how around subsystem optimization is a result of Hydrogenics’ longstanding leadership in the design and manufacture of highly engineered fuel cell test systems and diagnostics. We successfully transitioned this leadership in system integration and diagnostics by imbedding it in all Hydrogenics Power Systems’ fuel cell products. We believe this integration knowledge is a critical element of Hydrogenics’ competitive advantage at this early stage of fuel cell commercialization. It is our way of bringing what we know and do best as the key to customer success.

As a result of these Hydrogenics competencies, we consider our fuel cell, and fuel cell hybrid, products to be best-in-class based on:

           High efficiency and power density in an ambient pressure design
           Versatility for a range of applications
           Compact footprint
           Dynamic response to instantaneous power load
           Ease of integratation into various OEM and end-user platforms
           Durability and reliability in hours of operation, including unlimited start/stop cycles
           Cost effectiveness
