Mobile lighting system running on hydrogen fuel cells H2LT

A new mobile lighting system were successfully tested and ready for commercial use Mobile lighting system running on hydrogen fuel cells can be cleaner, quieter and can be used in areas such as nighttime construction, sports and leisure activities for the illumination of airports, etc.

Thanks to the commercialization of this project, such systems are quite suitable for wide use. This is the conclusion reached by researchers at Sandia National Laboratories and different companies after a multi-year project, financed by the Department of fuel cell technologies, the appropriate division of Boeing, the California Department of motor vehicles, Altergy systems and 11 other partners.

Over the past five years, Sandia and 14 institutional partners have been developing fuel cells for mobile devices H2LT as a clean, efficient alternative to traditional lights powered by diesel generators.





 

California Corporation Multiquip Inc., a leading manufacturer and supplier of construction machinery, power generation, lighting and other industrial products, have already collected six of these prototypes.

 

In San Francisco, and even representatives of show-programs, including the organizers of the awards Oscar, has already realized the advantage of clean and efficient system H2LT. They are also already applied during the work of construction crews in the States of California and Connecticut. One of these systems deployed at Kennedy Space center (NASA) and used during the Shuttle launch.

Another advantage of this technology is to continually reduce its cost. If the first prototypes cost three times more expensive than traditional diesel systems, today developers have managed to reduce the price by adding a high-performance light-emitting diodes, which allowed to reduce the sizes of fuel cells, storage tanks for hydrogen and reduce the pressure in the cylinder. Experts predict the trend to reduce the cost of new technology will continue. published



P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
