SFC Energy AG - Press Release
SFC Energy: Simark Controls receives EFOY Pro fuel cell order from major
Canadian oil & gas services provider
- New customer uses the weatherproof EFOY Pro hybrid solutions for powering
off-grid actuator valves on liquids pipelines in Canada.
- Fuel cells ensure autonomous 24/7 operation of the systems while
significantly reducing logistics and service cost.
- Environmental friendliness of the power solution was a strong decision
criterion.
- Total order amount: CAD 0.4 million.
Brunnthal/Munich, Germany, June 19, 2018 - Simark Controls Ltd., a
subsidiary of SFC Energy (F3C:DE, ISIN: DE0007568578), leading provider of
hybrid power solutions to the stationary and mobile power generation
markets, has received an EFOY Pro fuel cell order from a new major customer
in Canada: The oil and gas services provider uses the fuel cells hybridized
with solar modules in a weatherproof EFOY ProCabinet to reliably power of
off-grid actuator valves on liquid pipelines. The order amounts to approx.
CAD 0.4 million.
In the past, the provider used standalone solar modules or thermoelectric
generators (TEGs). Both technologies have serious disadvantages in cold
Canadian temperatures and harsh weather conditions, causing danger of power
interruptions and system downtime. Simark's hybridized fuel cell/solar power
systems eliminate these reliability issues with a robust, fully integrated
solution for dependable 24/7 asset operation regardless of weather
conditions.
"The customer tested many systems and chose our EFOY hybrid solution based
on their decision criteria being heavily weighted to absolute power
dependability and performance," says Derek L'Hirondelle, Vice President of
Process Automation & Energy at Simark. "Their fuel consumption is
significantly lower; fuel cells utilize significantly less fuel vs. what a
propane TEG requires in the same time. This saves fuel costs and expensive
trips to remote and difficult to access locations. The customer also
appreciates the very small carbon footprint of our systems: They feature a
massive reduction in CO2 equivalent emissions over the TEG solution."
"Long system autonomy is a major USP of our fuel cell solutions," says Dr.
Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy. "Over the last year we have been able to
win major orders from several new oil and gas customers, because no other
technology can match the reliability of our systems in harsh weather
conditions. We also see a growing awareness for environmentally friendly
solutions in the industry. With our advanced energy, instrumentation, and
automation product portfolio we are in an excellent position for growth."
Simark delivers the EFOY Pro fuel cell in a variety of fully integrated plug
& play hybrid solutions, engineered to customer specifications. Top sellers
in the Simark portfolio are customized EFOY ProCabinets for stand-alone
operation of remote SCADA, wellhead or telecommunication tower equipment,
and mobile EFOY ProTrailers for security, surveillance and public events
applications.
