Advent Technologies secures expansion order contract

The contract has a total initial value of US$1.3 million. Deliveries are expected to commence in September 2023, with the supply chain projected to remain active throughout 2024 in accord with the customer's specified timeline. The primary application of Advent's fuel cell stacks is to serve as sustainable prime and back-up power sources in small cabins, working in conjunction with batteries.

The market for portable fuel cells, especially in the context of the leisure industry, is currently niche. However, because of the requirement to reduce carbon and other particulate emissions, this upswing in demand can be attributed to the increasing need for compact and portable fuel cell systems that are tailored to various leisure-related applications. The utilisation of Advent’s fuel cell stacks using liquid methanol as a hydrogen carrier fuel offers advantages in terms of transportation, logistics, and storage efficiency compared to gaseous hydrogen, thus enhancing operational safety.

Beyond their environmental advantage in terms of reduced emissions, Advent's Serene fuel cells provide an uninterrupted power supply across diverse environmental conditions and geographical locations. Serene fuel cells operate within ambient temperatures ranging from -20°C to +50°C and are designed to function efficiently even in humid and polluted air.
