Technology Partnerships Canada Invests $1.4 Million in Stuart Energy
Stuart Energy Systems Corporation (TSX: HHO) announced an expansion of the scope of its Hydrogen Energy Station (HES) development project, including an additional $1.4 million in funding support from Technology Partnerships Canada (TPC), a special operating agency of Industry Canada. As part of the project, Stuart Energy has successfully developed technology that produces clean hydrogen for vehicle fueling. The project amendment will allow Stuart Energy to adapt this technology for use in hydrogen backup power generators and hydrogen-based storage systems for renewable energy sources like wind and solar power. The HESfp with both fueling and power capabilities is comprised of five modules: water electrolysis-based hydrogen generation, compression, high-pressure storage, hydrogen fuel dispensing and power generation. The HESfp can produce and deliver clean and safe hydrogen fuel to vehicles while at the same time provide backup or peak power to facilities, resulting in an environmentally-friendly alternative to the traditional diesel backup power generators used in most large buildings today.
FuelCell Energy & Alliance Power to Provide 500kW Power To Santa Barbara
FuelCell Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: FCEL) and Alliance Power will supply 500 kilowatts of renewable energy to Santa Barbara. The two 250-kilowatt Direct FuelCell power plants will supply electric power and heat to Santa Barbara's El Estero Wastewater Treatment Plant, using methane gas from the anaerobic digesters as the fuel source. The power plants are expected to be delivered and operational in the fourth quarter of 2004. Alliance Power and FuelCell Energy have formed a joint venture to sell electric power and heat to the facility under a long-term power purchase agreement – the first of its kind for FuelCell Energy. Alliance Power is the turnkey provider to the project and FuelCell Energy will provide the DFC power plants and operations and maintenance services. The 650-degree Fahrenheit exhaust from the power plants will be used to supplement heating of the anaerobic digesters that create the methane gas for use by the fuel cells. Southern California Edison, administrator for The California Public Utilities Commission's (CPUC) Self-Generation Incentive Program for their service territory, has issued a reservation letter that will provide incentive funding of $2.25 million to the combined entity. Industrial and municipal wastewater treatment facilities with anaerobic gas digesters present an important […]
