[{"type":"text","content":"\n \nRNS Number : 6734C AFC Energy Plc 12 February 2020 \n\nRNS Reach - This is a Non-Regulatory Announcement\n \n12 February 2020\nAFC Energy PLC\n(\"AFC Energy\" or the \"Company\")\nAFC Energy and MSP Technologies Unveil Hybrid Hydrogen Generator System for Off-Grid Distributed Power Market \nAFC Energy (AIM: AFC), a leading provider of hydrogen power generation technologies, will today, in collaboration with its partner, MSP Technologies, showcase to UK private sector construction contractors, the future of off-grid stationary power, demonstrating how adopting a portfolio energy technology strategy can deliver a glide path to net zero carbon emissions for the sector without incurring significant financial impairments of existing assets. \nHighlights\n· The off-grid global diesel generation market, with annual revenues in excess of US$20bn, is a material contributor to today's greenhouse gas emissions and a constraint to national and international net zero emission targets. \n \n· The Hybrid Distributed Power System on display today, consisting of AFC Energy's H-PowerTM fuel cell system, MSP Technologies FLEX-ESS battery solution, and a diesel generator, will highlight how an immediate reduction in carbon emissions of 50% or more is achievable from the offgrid power market based on typical industry usage data.\n \n· Through adoption of a zero emission H-PowerTM system and a more efficient operation of existing diesel power, supported by energy storage, a clear glidepath is created for operators to phase out diesel generators in an environmentally sustainable manner, whilst protecting their legacy investments. \n \n· Deploying this hybrid system de-risks any contractors' perceived risk in fully endorsing new hydrogen-based technologies as a complete short-term displacement of fossil fuel combustion gensets. \n \n· The containerised and modular fuel cell and FLEX-ESS solution make for a readily transportable and mobile power source, not dissimilar to diesel gensets. \nAFC Energy's latest stop on its \"Dunsfold to Dundee Dash\" is in the picturesque town of Holme in the UK's Lake District.&nb...
