MHT. Hy9 Corp, a producer of membrane and fuel processing systems, is to provide membrane technology for ExxonMobil’s on-board fuel cell reformer project.


Exxon Mobil Corporation is partnering with QuestAir Technologies, Plug Power Inc. and Ben Gurion University with plans to commercialise an on-vehicle hydrogen production system for use in a fuel cell-powered lift truck application.


While the initial work may only be carried out on forklifts, it may have far-reaching consequences as the partners seek to bring such technology to passenger vehicles.


Plug Power will seek to commercialise technologies developed by ExxonMobil, QuestAir Technologies and Ben Gurion University that take liquid fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, ethanol or biodiesel, and convert them into hydrogen onboard the vehicle.



The on-vehicle hydrogen fuel system comprises of an advanced reformer developed by ExxonMobil and hydrogen separation, using QuestAir Technologies’ Rapid Cycle Pressure Swing Adsorption system. Sulphur is controlled by an ExxonMobil proprietary S-Trap, developed in conjunction with Ben Gurion University.


Dr. Emil Jacobs, Vice President of R&D at Exxon-Mobil Research and Engineering, is believed to have suggested that onboard reforming in passenger vehicles could be 80% more fuel efficient than current engine technologies, and cut CO2 emissions by 45%.

PLUG 1.23, +0.08, +7.0%) announced today that Central Grocers, Inc. has purchased 220 GenDrive(tm) fuel cell units to power the entire lift truck fleet at their new distribution center. The center is currently under construction in Joliet, Illinois, and is expected to be operational by the end of the first quarter of 2009.
Central Grocers chose the hydrogen fuel cell power units, rather than traditional lead-acid batteries, for a new fleet of Yale lift trucks. By using Plug Power's GenDrive fuel cells, Central Grocers expects enhanced productivity within its distribution center. Powering the entire lift truck fleet with GenDrive will eliminate the need to invest in a battery charging and changing infrastructure, reducing operational costs and opening up valuable floor space for the distribution business. The use of fuel cells also reduces the carbon footprint of the distribution center and removes the storage and handling of toxic materials associated with the use of lead-acid batteries from the workplace.
"Central Grocers represents the first greenfield site to incorporate our GenDrive solution into its operations. Greenfield sites offer the potential for the greatest financial and operational benefits to our customers by eliminating the need for capital investments in batteries and the associated chargers, storage and changing systems," said Andy Marsh, CEO of Plug Power. "This purchase also helps Central Grocers green their supply chain as well as their business operations."
The GenDrive units will be fueled by compressed hydrogen gas, which is converted from liquid hydrogen. The units are fueled by the lift truck operator at a conveniently located dispenser, much like fueling an automobile. Air Products (APD:Air Products and Chemicals, Inc

APD 53.49, +0.60, +1.1%) will supply both the liquid hydrogen storage compression system as well as multiple indoor fueling dispensers. GenDrive can be quickly refueled by the lift truck operator in less than two minutes. This completely eliminates the need to change, store, charge and maintain multiple lead-acid batteries per lift truck.
Yale Equipment Services, located in Rosemont, Illinois, will service both the lift trucks and GenDrive fuel cell units. The Yale lift trucks provide unique features such as regenerative lift and lower on stand-up units to improve energy efficiency and power steering on pallet trucks to enhance operator productivity.

, , ) , a leader in providing clean, reliable energy solutions, has announced they have received over $6 M in awards from the United States Department of Energy (DOE) for fuel cell market transformation programs. The funding will be used to integrate Plug Power's fuel cell solutions into material handling, residential and stationary power applications. Successful completion of these projects will strengthen the product portfolios for Plug Power's GenDrive and GenSys products.
Additionally, nine programs were awarded to Plug Power customers for DOE market transformation projects, totaling over 304 GenDrive units deployed into the field. Replacing lead acid batteries in electric lift trucks, these product installations will allow for fleet conversions within warehouses and distribution centers in Arkansas, Colorado, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Texas.
"These awards move commercial customers beyond field trials to full fleet conversions," said Tony Troutt, Director of Sales at Plug Power. "Strong support from large customers in diverse industries will drive rapid market adoption."
As part of the $6 M in awards, the DOE will also fund a three-year project to verify the durability and commercial readiness of Plug Power's combined heat and power GenSys product. Designed for residential and light commercial applications, GenSys replaces traditional furnaces and boilers, creating electricity and high-quality heat for the consumer. The DOE funded reliability fleet will be installed in highly visible locations in Southern California, working with Southern California Gas Company, a Sempra Energy utility, and the National Fuel Cell Research Center at the University of California, Irvine.
"We appreciate the DOE's investment and commitment to fuel cell technology," said Katrina Fritz Intwala, Vice President of Government and Public Relations. "Their vision and leadership has facilitated expansion and growth within the industry. This will allow companies like Plug Power and its customers to deploy exciting alternative energy products and accelerate the growth of green jobs."
