SFC Energy AG - Press Release
SFC Energy partner AG Group delivers man portable SFC Energy Network to
Belgian Army
- After success of the SFC Energy Equipment with French Defense, French
and Belgian Customs, and French Law Enforcement Forces, AG Group now
also supplies SFC's portable, mobile and covert defense energy
solutions to the Belgian Special Forces.
- SFC Energy Network reliably powers off-grid soldier devices in multi-
day missions.
- JENNY 600S fuel cell increases Soldier mobility and mission flexibility
by reducing weight.
Brunnthal/Munich, Germany, November, 16, 2016 - SFC Energy, a leading
provider of hybrid power solutions to the stationary and mobile power
generation markets, announces the delivery of an initial order by their
distributor, autonomous energy expert AG Group (AG Systems, Chatillon la
Borde, France, and AG Europe, AG Systems Genk, Belgium) for the delivery of
SFC Energy's man portable SFC Energy Network. The Belgian Special Forces
will use the portable energy network to reliably power soldier devices in a
wide variety of missions in austere environments. The order generated
revenues to the amount of EUR 0.2 million.
AG Group are autonomous energy experts with a long experience in defense
and law enforcement projects. They have been successfully distributing SFC
Energy's portable, mobile and covert power solutions to French Defense,
French and Belgian security & surveillance customers, and French Law
Enforcement Forces for many years.
The SFC Energy Network is a lightweight, highly innovative power solution
for soldiers in the field. It consists of SFC Energy's portable JENNY 600S
fuel cell, the SFC Power Manager PM3G, and various accessories, to reliably
power devices and charges batteries in the field for many days.
Thanks to the high energy density of the fuel methanol cartridges (7 times
higher than Li-ion batteries), soldiers can carry along much power at
minimum weight and volume. In a 96-hour mission this enables weight savings
of up to 80% over conventional power supplies. In the field, the JENNY 600S
fuel cell increases mission autonomy and operational mobility and
flexibility with significantly reduced weight.
"The Belgian Special Forces are now able to accomplish missions that are
not feasible with conventional batteries or would require an enormous
logistical effort. They are now compatible with the NATO forces that
already fielded the SFC fuel cell and power management solutions.", says
Patrick Albert, co-founder of AG Systems and AG Europe, the SFC Energy
defense partners in Benelux and France.
"We are excited to have the Belgian Army join the prestigious group of
International Defense Forces, who use our defense fuel cells in their
missions", says Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy AG. "We see a growing
demand for our market leading portfolio of portable, vehicle-based,
stationary, and back-up power products on the basis of fuel cells, as
defense organizations are looking into new alternatives for tackling the
increasing security challenges of our time."
Numerous international NATO and PfP defense organizations use SFC Energy
fuel cell products. SFC Energy has been cooperating closely with German
Bundeswehr and the U.S. Army for over 10 years. SFC fuel cell and accessory
products carry a NATO stock number.
All SFC fuel cells and cartridges are approved for air transport according
to UN3473. Transport logistics for the fuel methanol are much easier than
for Li-ion batteries or Diesel.
