The main power supply for the zero-emission navigation: Proton Motor’s new modular HyShip hydrogen fuel cell system is a 2021 product innovation for maritime applications. It was primarily developed for the power supply of the electric powertrain and other on-board consumers of passenger, cargo, working, military ships and submarines.

The HyShip hybrid arrangement is successfully formed by combining fuel cell technology with a battery system plus metal hydride H2 storage to form a functional kit entity that produces 100 percent emission-free performance on the open sea. The drive component can be manufactured with single or multiple PM 400 stack modules and is adapted to the customer-specific installation for overall implementation.

The very high reliability and low maintenance costs of the integration-ready fuel cell system solution PM Module compared to conventional diesel and/or battery use speaks for hydrogen fuel cell technology as an energy source in the context of an emergency power application or in use as an emergency power system.

With hydrogen as an energy carrier, almost unlimited bridging times can be achieved by Proton Motor`s product PM Module in the power classes PM Module S4 and PM Module S8 as a modern, emission- and noise-free power generator.

Typical areas of application:

• Interlockings / Railway application
• Telecommunications / Radio application
• Securing critical infrastructures
• Industry and data centres
• Energy self-sufficient residential buildings and industrial plants
• Regenerating hydrogen from renewable sources
• Off-grid energy supply (island solution)
• Grid-connected systems for emergency power supply or grid support

In addition, many other applications can be realised with PM Module S4 / S8 in which an efficient and eco-friendly energy supply is required.

The PM Frame is a modular and universally applicable hydrogen fuel cell system for stationary applications with the Proton Motor stack module as hightech core element. PM Frame was specially developed by Proton Motor as product innovation and is manufactured to order.

In addition to the installed stack module, the fuel cell system PM Frame already contains the following components:

• Supply units for hydrogen
• Supply units for reaction air
• Cooling circuit
• Control
• Voltage distribution

Multiple PM Frames can be connected and operated in parallel to achieve higher power.

Typical areas of application:

• Interlockings / Railway application
• Telecommunications / Radio Application
• Securing critical infrastructures
• Industry and data centres
• Energy self-sufficient residential buildings and industrial plants
• Regenerating hydrogen from renewable sources
• Off-grid energy supply (island solution)
• Grid-connected systems for emergency power supply or grid support

The international energy market is currently undergoing a transformation process. With 40 percent dependence on Russian gas, special focus is placed on solar expansion in the domestic building energy sector as well as on the energy supply and security of (large-scale) industrial or critical infrastructures. For a quarter of a century, Proton Motor has been manufacturing alternative energy solutions using resource-saving hydrogen fuel cells. As a modular ready-for-integration multi-stack fuel cell solution, the newly developed Proton Motor product HyScale also offers, for example, the advantage of using and storing solar energy independently.

Current technologies often work with natural gas, which becomes negligible in innovative Proton Motor fuel cells based on hydrogen. By simultaneously implementing several PM 400 stack modules in a HyScale system, customer-specific applications – also for power grid protection and emergency power supply – can be realised up to the megawatt range.

The hydrogen-based fuel cell HyRange® extender for battery-electric commercial vehicles and buses is an effective support for mobility applications in the power class 21 kw to 213 kW. The HyRange® system amplifies and extends the range of vehicles whose existing battery capacity is not sufficient for the intended operation.

Typical areas of application:

• Local public transport
• Trucks & Transporters
• Municipal Vehicles
• Off-Road Vehicles
• Logistics and Commercial vehicles
• Airport apron applications
• Maritime power solutions
• Onboard power supply (APU)

The Proton Motor solution:
With the best technological knowledge from a quarter of a century, Proton Motor offers fuel cell-based solutions for vehicle drives, free of noise and pollutant emissions. As the perfect partner for vehicle manufacturers, original equipment manufacturers, suppliers of electric vehicle drive systems, vehicle integrators and operators of vehicle fleets for delivery and passenger transport, Proton Motor provides its customers with comprehensive and individual support in the layout, design and integration of fuel cell hybrid systems and in the development of fuel cell service networks.

In order to compensate for the system-related disadvantages of pure battery drives, such as the high weight, short range and long charging times of the vehicle, Proton Motor presents the HyRange® as a sensible addition with our hydrogen-based fuel cell technology. Proton Motor has many years of experience in the field of fuel cell hybridisation in combination with batteries and also in conjunction with capacitor technology.

The modular HyRange® system design allows OEM partners to easily integrate it into a wide range of installation conditions. By specifically adapting the power of the fuel cell system and the application-specific design of the battery, it is possible to vary between pure plug-in hybrid operation and pure range extender operation and optimally adapt them to the respective requirements. In this way, power outputs greater than 30 kW can also be easily realised by combining the standard assemblies.

With specially developed simulation software, Proton Motor can thus individually dimension the battery, fuel cell and hydrogen tank/storage for almost any application. This can be done for an individual vehicle as well as for a complete fleet of vehicles within a vehicle fleet. For this purpose, Proton Motor offers a fleet analysis as a customised service.
