AFC ENERGY (AFC) today launched The Power Tower, a new 10kW off-grid hydrogen power generator unit. The Power Tower is supported by four hydrogen fuel cells, and aims to provide electricity for energy-intensive sectors such as the construction industry, while cutting emissions. It is being marketed as a replacement for diesel generators, and can reach full power within 30 seconds from start-up. AFC has already agreed deals to provide Power Towers to both Acciona, a Spanish renewable energy group, and Keltbray, a UK-based construction company. The towers will be in operation at both businesses later this year. Chief executive Adam Bond told City A.M.: "The Power Tower is energy dense and modular, making it ideal for the construction industry due to its small footprint."
