Olympic Rings Powered by Fuel Cells

Another great fuel cell addition to this Winter’s Olympics! Will anyone be traveling to Vancouver this week? Let us know if you see the rings (we’d love a picture), or ride in one of the 20 fuel cell buses!

The BC Hydrogen Highway has announced that the floating Olympic Rings in Vancouver’s harbor will be powered by ‘made-in-Canada’ hydrogen fuel cells.

The BC Hydrogen Highway and its industry members paid for the cost of the new installation, which will provide clean, supplementary power to the LED-lights on the 30 ft. tall Olympic Rings. The Province of British Columbia encouraged the industry to undertake this work - the refit makes the Olympic Rings greener and showcases cutting-edge clean energy technology.

Inside the press release linked above, you’ll find this quote from John Tak, President of the Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association. ”The BC Hydrogen Highway is excited and proud to provide this hydrogen fuel cell power boost to such an inspiring, iconic symbol.  It is our hope that when a world-wide audience sees the floating Olympic Rings, they are reminded that clean energy solutions, such as hydrogen fuel cells, have arrived and will help address our environmental challenges.”

    The fuel cell is IdaTech’s ElectraGen H2 system.  This is really exciting for us!

    An important detail is the fuel cell is contributing 2.5 kWh/day to a system that is using approximately 150 kWh per day to run. The main power system here is a hybrid diesel/battery inverter. I know this because I am the guy who is monitoring this system and manually running the fuel cell for 1 hr a day and have supplied the hybrid system as well as tied the fuel cell into the hybrid system.
