Telecommunications installations for truly extended run backup power

In summary, fuel cell backup power systems operating on a compact liquid fuel can remove the challenges that hydrogen-only systems face. Whether the challenge is hydrogen delivery and storage due to a remote or roof-top location or the high price of hydrogen, reformer-based fuel cell systems have numerous advantages versus hydrogen-only systems as well as traditional battery strings or diesel generators. In addition to those benefits, the compact liquid fuel allows virtually unlimited fuel cell backup power. Existing solutions are commercially available today for mission critical and remote sites, such as telecommunication carrierpsilas tower sites and other critical communications networks. Those fuel cell products for critical power are examples of the range of solutions that can be addressed today using fuel cell and reforming technology.
