LATHAM, NY, August 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUG), a leading provider of hydrogen engines and fuel refueling responses for electric mobility, announced a new ProGen 1 kW mobile fuel formula for small robotic scale, self-guided cars (AGVs), unmanned aerial cars (UAVs) and other aerospace applications. The new ProGen formula represents an expansion of the generation and product line acquired when the company acquired EnergyOr, a Montreal-based mobile fuel formula company with extensive experience in the design and application of mobile aerospace fuel formulas, in June 2019. Plug Power’s new Mobile Fuel Formula combines a patented lightweight, physically powerful approach to its patented generation of air-cooled closed cathode, delivering several key benefits over market competitors.
“Plug Power develops the generation from design to operation,” said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power. “ProGen hydrogen fuel cells allow appliances with electric motors to operate cleanly and efficiently. The ProGen 1kW allows Plug Power to force everything from electric cars to small robots and drones, and everything in between. Another solution to help the global supply chain.”
Plug Power’s new 1 kW light and strong fuel mobile formula is specially designed to provide in-flight stay force and long operating times under maximum and non-easy operating conditions. With a compressed hydrogen fuel source, the formula outperforms the average lithium battery in terms of tenure force through a 3 to four thing. With liquid hydrogen force formulas, this permanence force merit is multiplied by nine.
Plug Power’s new 1 kW mobile fuel formula is a larger, more resilient edition of the ProGen 450W. Its complicated generation of air-cooled closed cathode eliminates significant complexity, the weight of the liquid cooling circuit and heat exchangers used in classic liquid-cooled formulas. This simplicity of design allows for a sublime and remarkably smooth overall formula architecture. At the same time, the closed cathode allows the cathode loop of the stack to be pressurized for maximum altitude and maximum ambient temperature with minimal loss of formula performance, while reducing cathode contamination: 3 spaces in which typical open cathode formulas face significant limitations.
The new ProGen 1 kW mobile fuel formula is across five U.S. patents. And it is one of five products under 2 kW presented through the company. Others include: the ProGen 450W for robotics and drones, the 1.5kW GenDrive for handling and the GenSure E-1100 (1.1kW) and GenSure E-200 (200W) backup force models.
About Plug PowerPlug Power is building the hydrogen economy as the leading provider of turnkey complete hydrogen fuel (HFC) mobile solutions.
