The objective of the field test was to evaluate the ammonia-based power solution’s performance, resilience and cost-savings potential. Upon demonstration of the resilient and reliable performance of the solution, Vodafone will showcase it to different business units. GenCell’s technology is designed for placement in remote locations distanced from urban areas, and to supply continuous power in harsh environments and weather conditions with minimal human intervention or maintenance. While ammonia and hydrogen don’t emit CO2 at the point of use, producing ammonia does currently rely on fossil fuels. By developing the hydrogen and ammonia fuel cell technology, Vodafone is making them ready for the future powered by fuels from renewable sources. GenCell is seeing a substantial uptake in interest in its solutions across the telecom sector, especially in Europe where regulations are tightening against carbon emissions.
This solution enables cost-effective hydrogen logistics by leveraging the advantages of anhydrous ammonia as a storage medium. Anhydrous ammonia can store approximately 30% more energy per unit volume compared to liquefied hydrogen, making it a more efficient and space-saving alternative for transporting and storing hydrogen.
More than 1.1 billion people lack electricity for lighting, telecom, cooking & economic development. With 84% of these people living in rural areas beyond the reach of power grids, solutions are needed to provide clean and affordable electricity to these people. The GenCell A5 nano-plant is an off-grid power solution that provides the benefits of green fuel cell energy with an inexpensive and easily accessible liquid fuel: anhydrous ammonia. This Solution can be used for telecommunications and rural electrification, a critical need for improving quality of life in off-grid communities. In the 2020s, more than 1 million telecom towers will be in off-grid or in poor-grid locations powered by diesel generators that pollute the air and contaminate the soil. With this Solution, off-grid communities can gain access to improved communications and electricity without pollution and emissions.
