GreenRoc Accelerates their World Class Project to Production as Early as 2028. Watch the full video here.
Thanks for posting those images Segedunum......as you say clearly a much larger footprint ....could we be looking at the first 20kW Power Tower ? .... why else would they be using a bigger cabinet? if it is just for extra stability they could have just used a wider base .....intriguing.
From the interim report 29th June ....it may well have gone to Kier ...the report says August deployment to Kier ...https://www.lse.co.uk/rns/AFC/interim-results-0auyl4e02z7eoo9.html .....maybe a new client ...no branding on the Power Tower .
It is early days for the Keltbray Power Tower .....remember these are trials .....i would imagin that Keltbray will use this system as an EV charger to get experience with the potential that is available and find various roles for the system in a real world construction enviroment .
Has anyone been able to ascertain if the Keltbray system is the Power Tower EV .....As this is a separate product from the Power Tower and has the intergrated ABB charger .....if it is the non EV Power Tower who has supplied the EV charger ? Rolec ?......maybe Keltbray plan to use the system in multi roles ....as just using it as an EV charger is not exactly Diesel Genset replacement....as for the Keltbray office compound ....grid powered ?
Only 4 hrs to charge the BMW i3s ..... The Keltbray staff could have their cars parked up for 8-12 hrs .....it will be a good trial at 10 Kw for 12 hrs .... https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/979094/afc-energy-launches-hydrogen-fueled-charging-point-for-evs-979094.html
If Keltbray are to use the Power Tower for EV charging ....will that indicate the first link up with an ABB charger as mentioned in the launch of the Power Tower EV back in April .... https://www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk/companies/news/979094/afc-energy-launches-hydrogen-fueled-charging-point-for-evs-979094.html
A photo of the Power Tower being assembled in a car park is hardly news worthy via RNS .....the excitement of the Keltbray guy is understandable .....as with the Acciona system some news may follow once it is actually delivering power .
Looks like it is being assembled in the car park .....only 2 stacks in the Power Tower .....must be a reason ..... we were told back in mid June that the Keltbray Power Tower was branded up and in the Dunsfold assembly facility .....Kier next ?
As the Acciona trials continue is it possible that they will run the Power Tower on the various lower grades of Hydrogen ......from the photos that have emerged you can see different colour bottles are stored next to the Power Tower .....red top and black top bottles https://media-exp1.licdn.com/dms/image/C4D22AQFJikS3IaVjng/feedshare-shrink_2048_1536/0/1664533695503?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=DXlPL175Rhr1YD0LqVkuUt64E2jjbyL7-qO8C0jBQ8I ......Whereas in the Acciona trials earlier this year .....the 100kW PEM fuel cell system was using full red bottles which is my understanding of the Hydrogen colour coding ..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdUSTj-eCYQ .....Acciona must have now built up a direct comparison on fuel cost between PEM systems and the AFC system.....will they disclose this information tho .... hope it proves a significant saving using AFC systems.
The bottled hydrogen will be fed into a control manifold and then fed into the Power Tower along the ducting tray seen in the photos .... https://media-exp1.licdn.com/dms/image/C4D22AQFJikS3IaVjng/feedshare-shrink_2048_1536/0/1664533695503?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=DXlPL175Rhr1YD0LqVkuUt64E2jjbyL7-qO8C0jBQ8I
looks like the Power Tower is nicely placed under an Extreme E canopy .....will we see the Acciona Race Team use a Power Tower at the next race ..... https://media-exp1.licdn.com/dms/image/C4D22AQFJikS3IaVjng/feedshare-shrink_2048_1536/0/1664533695503?e=2147483647&v=beta&t=DXlPL175Rhr1YD0LqVkuUt64E2jjbyL7-qO8C0jBQ8I
The next generation of AEM is due to finish trials March 2024 .....https://gow.epsrc.ukri.org/NGBOViewGrant.aspx?GrantRef=EP/T009233/1 ....What is the significance of PV3 Technologies as a partner in this project ?.....as PV3 have been aquired by TFP Hydrogen... https://www.tfphydrogen.com/markets/fuel-cells
Exactly 1 year ago AFC released an Extreme E Mid season update ......should we expect the mid season update for 2022 ?...... https://www.lse.co.uk/rns/AFC/extreme-e-mid-season-update-vg5q6hpz0cwvqdy.html

Will Red Diesel be making a comeback ? Some interesting quotes from this article .... "The move was intended to push the industry to adopt more sustainable fuels.
