IE-DRIVE HD

100kW fuel cell system for buses, trucks and stationary power applications

IE-DRIVE HD

IE-DRIVE™ HD has been developed by Intelligent Energy (IE) as a complete fuel cell system to provide up to 100kW of continuous power.

The fuel cell system is compact and simple to integrate.  The main fuel cell module contains the fuel cell stack and most of the balance of plant, with a series of connections designed that follow the StaSHH  standard. IE also supply the heat exchanger and exhaust system to reduce the time and effort required to install our fuel cells systems.

IE-DRIVE HD has been designed to be certified for road use, ideal for integration into buses or trucks, as well as other motive applications such as large material handling (MHE), off-highway vehicles, construction, rail and marine.

IE-DRIVE HD can also be used in stationary or mobile power applications, such as hybrid generators, back-up power and large-scale (multi-MW) power generation from hydrogen.

Applications

  • Bus
  • Truck
  • Stationary Power
  • Construction / Off-highway
  • Material handling
  • Rail
  • Marine
