Fusion Fuel commissions Portuguese green hydrogen project

Fusion Fuel and Ballard Power Systems have connected Fusion Fuel's H2Évora green hydrogen project to the Portuguese electric grid.

The demonstration project, which consists of 15 HEVO-Solar units and associated balance of plant equipment, will produce 15 tons of green hydrogen per year and avoid 135 tons of CO2 per year. The facility incorporates a 200 kW Ballard Power FCwave fuel cell module that converts green hydrogen into electricity, allowing Fusion Fuel to sell power during peak demand.

Integration of Fusion Fuel's solar-to-hydrogen HEVO solution and Ballard's fuel cell technology demonstrates the viability of hydrogen as a flexible energy storage vector and off-grid power source.
