Fuel cells works, Canada Raises Awareness on Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles

Calgary, AB–Westech Industrial Ltd. (Westech) and Plug Power Inc. form a strategic partnership to accelerate hydrogen fuel cell adoption as an alternative energy source in Western Canada.

Westech will be the authorized sales and service channel for the Western Canada region of Plug Power’s GenSure LP Fuel Cell suite of products. Westech has been a trusted industry partner for innovative analytical process control and instrumentation solutions to Canadian industries for over 50 years. Plug Power, a leading provider of green hydrogen solutions and a globally recognized leader in the hydrogen fuel cell market will complement Westech’s portfolio of world class technology manufacturers and accelerate the adoption of hydrogen and fuel cell technology by providing trusted local support. 

RELIABLE FUEL CELL BACKUP POWER WHEN IT’S NEEDED 

Plug Power’s GenSure products provide zero-emission robust, reliable backup power. Plug Power has installed more than 4,800 GenSure LP fuel cells at customer sites across the United States and 36 other countries. With more than 100 million installed hours of site power protection, the products are field-proven through snow and ice storms, hurricanes and other severe weather events.

The GenSure fuel cell products are fueled by industrial-grade hydrogen. They can affordably provide hundreds of hours of runtime between refueling visits and many years of service for critical equipment. The simple maintenance required for GenSure LP systems means fewer site visits and up to 84% lower operational costs when compared to combustion generators. GenSure is the favorable choice regarding total cost of ownership compared to traditional backup power sources. 

The GenSure LP fuel cells are a winner against incumbent solutions in terms of sustainability, total cost of ownership and reliability.
