Great pity John could not be still here to see this though.
Proton Power has been contracted to perform a feasibility study for a fuel cell maritime application in Asia Pacific
Proton Power is pleased to announce that it has been contracted to undertake a feasibility study for a maritime fuel cell application from an Asia Pacific based customer. The contract value is Euro 297,000. The study is aimed at generating on board power and will be finalised by September 2014 and when completed should result in an order for several hundred units.
Proton Power has considerable know how in maritime based fuel cell applications having operated the Alsterwasser tourist boat in Hamburg with a Proton fuel cell system for the last five years.
John Wall, Chairman of Proton, said: "This will be a milestone for us. Our know how in maritime fuel cell applications is proven and allows emission free operation. We look forward to receiving a significant order once the feasibility study is completed.
The demand for emission free systems in Asia Pacific is growing dramatically and our expertise will allow solutions in maritime as well as mobile and stationary products for the Asia Pacific markets."
