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 .

Other brands are available ... https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/emergency-stop-push-buttons/8263861?cm_mmc=UK-PLA-DS3A-_-google-_-CSS_UK_EN_Switches_Whoop-_-Emergency+Stop+Push+Buttons_Whoop+(2)-_-8263861&matchtype=&pla-474488969981&cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=9771206593&cq_term=&cq_plac=&cq_net=s&cq_plt=gp&gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qi9lGQTqYCM48_CNjqCu1wL8H5Fa2i29XH3C7-BNrpiksvhFpuBVtYaAhpUEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Should the estop button be lockable .....ie it will be locked off in the event of an emergency and then unlocked when safe to do so by the appointed persons ?

Indeed Alt -muddle ......just curious as to why it was not assembled an commissioned at Dunsfold HQ .....

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

This latest announcement is just the follow up to the fact that the current CFO... Graeme Lewis is retiring in April .....a requirement to notify the market .

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 this article help clear up that Ev charging issue at COP26.....some words from AB himself ....https://airqualitynews.com/2021/10/21/evs-at-cop26-hampered-by-lack-of-charging-points/

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. But contractors argue that alternative fuels are not yet readily available – meaning they have to use the more expensive white diesel" full story here ... https://www.constructionnews.co.uk/government/restore-red-diesel-rebate-to-combat-rapid-inflation-mineral-group-warns-01-09-2022/

Would this be the article ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdB_gAt303Y

" The contractor has teamed up with industry leading brands to deliver the latest technology from AC and DC charging solutions delivering 3 to 350kW " ......shall we guess who that might be ?.....full article here https://www.constructionenquirer.com/2022/07/29/bam-launches-ev-charging-business/

It appears that Hydrologiq have used the £630k government funding to hire a few fuel cells and sub let them .....no R&D involvement for them there then.....Toyota PEM fuel cells are used by the French company EODev.....as we will never know the financial contract details they have with Kier ....it will be virtually impossible to compare with the AFC system .

There are some great reseachers on this BB ....cover a wide range of topics and have vast experience in all things AFC .......What we need is for AFC to ask for our help.... to find these missing links in the supply chain .....what exactly are we short of ?.....lets us know ......we would love to help .
