H₂Genset – mobile hydrogen power generator
- The H₂Genset is a flexible and mobile generator using hydrogen for use in areas without access to the conventional power grid.
- It is the first device that already has the hydrogen supply integrated by means of pressure tanks. Similar devices available on the market must be operated with an external hydrogen supply.
- The H₂Genset has an integrated chassis. It is legally approved for road use and can be transported as a trailer from any vehicle to the site of operation.
- The device can be refueled at hydrogen stations like a hydrogen car, operated without special safety precautions, and used in all weather and environmental conditions.
- For even greater self-sufficiency, the H₂Genset also has a connection for an external tank, e.g. a standard 12-cylinder gas cylinder bundle.
- The H₂Genset has an integrated cloud connection and can therefore be monitored via the associated web app.
