FCvelocity – 9SSL
Ballard Power Systems offers a proton exchange
membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack based on our
proven, fourth generation transportation stack
technology.
Available now to customers with fuel cell stack
integration capabilities, the FCvelocity–9SSL is
designed to perform in rugged conditions and
is scalable depending upon customer requirements. Stacks are available in power increments
from approximately 4 to 21kilowatts.
