Self-sufficient backup power to safeguard the drinking water supply
To the reference report
Securing critical infrastructure with emergency power supply solutions will become more important than ever in the future due to geopolitical voltages and new legal requirements such as NIS2 and CER Directive. According to these current regulations, a back-up power supply of at least 72 hours should be guaranteed for crisis management. Choosing the right technology in the event of a blackout is absolutely crucial. Factors such as maintenance intensity and fuel availability and the associated costs must be given particular consideration in view of the useful life of such systems, which is often 20-30 years. The current transition away from fossil fuels now offers the opportunity to switch to fail-safe, maintenance-free and climate-friendly power generation.
In the event of a blackout, a reliable power supply is essential for civil protection, especially for radio and telecommunications masts, data centres, substations and water supply infrastructures. EFOY Hydrogen Fuel Cell Solutions and EFOY Pro Direct Methanol Fuel Cells are also used to supply power in the event of major emergencies. For example, for emergency equipment and as an on-board power supply for the vehicles of emergency and blue light organisations or to supply stationary telecommunications infrastructure.
| Power requirement | Between 1 and 50 kW |
| Appication requirements | Stationary as a back-up power supply, emergency power system, on-board power supply or mobile for temporary use on site |
In the event of a disaster, critical infrastructure must be supplied with uninterrupted emergency power. A diesel generator needs a minute or more to supply critical infrastructure with emergency power in the event of a disaster – an eternity when every second counts. In the event of major disasters such as floods, hurricanes or earthquakes, power outages often occur or the emergency services have to operate in regions far from the power grid. A fast, efficient and sustainable energy supply is therefore essential. For disaster control, hydrogen and fuel cell technology offer new possibilities and numerous advantages for a reliable power supply without downtime.
