HydroCab PowerCore for Energy Storage

Do you need Back-Up Power?

We have the customized solution:
HydroCab PowerCore

(Self-recharging fuel cell with integrated fuel cells and electrolysers) 

 

HydroCab PowerCore is a complete energy storage system combining the benefits of hydrogen and battery systems.

It can be integrated into all existing PV, wind, or hydropower plants,  supporting short and long-term energy storage. Its plug-and-play modularity enables the design of a flexible system customized to your needs.

 

It can be delivered in an air-cooled or water cooled version for combined heat and power.

A comprehensive range of optional elements are available to complete the systems including: Compressors, Water Purification Systems, Water Tank Modules, H2 Storage Solutions, Inverters, and Batteries.

We also offer installation and commissioning on site.

Do you need a bigger system? No problem, the system is scalable, ask us for a customized solution.

Components

Enapter AEM Electrolyser EL 4

High efficiency Electrolyser with low requirements for input water purity. The Modules can be easily integrated in 19“ racks and have low maintenance requirements. As many modules as needed are addable to a scalable and modular System.

Enapter Water Tank Module (WTM) 2.1

The water tank is rack mountable into a standard 19” cabinet. It is able to supply 11 AEM electrolysers with clean water,

Enapter Dryer

The dryer is maintenance- free. During operation, one cartridge catches the humidity from the hydrogen gas stream of the electrolyser, while the other cartridge is heated and regenerated. The dryer is rack- mountable in a standard 19” cabinet.

Hydro Fuel Cell

Our fuel cells from Intelligent Energy can be integrated into our modular and individual configurable H2 Core systems, complementing the systems immensely, because the hydrogen produced can be easily and reliably converted back into electricity. The fuel cells are available in the different power levels 1.2 kW, 2.4 kW and 4.0 kW.

Extendables

This product can be extended with the following modules

Energy Management System (EMS)

Energy Management System:

Enapter’s unique Energy Management System (EMS) allows for intuitive monitoring and control of the electrolysers and dryers, as well as easy integration with third-party devices (ie. fuel cells, sensors, tanks, solar, wind, etc.).

The EMS takes energy system control software to a whole new level.
