REFIRE Shows its Vision for Zero-Emission Fuel Cell Mobility with Heavy-Duty PRISMA XII+ at IAA Mobility 2021
PR91563
MUNICH, Sept. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
- REFIRE PRISMA XII+ fuel cell system makes Euro debut, revealing latest tech
innovations in fuel cell power and efficiency for heavy-duty trucks
- REFIRE actively engages global partners, customers along the hydrogen value
chain, for greater collaboration and commercialisation of the fuel cell
industry.
In the context of the current global response to climate disruption, hydrogen
technologies are crucial to achieving a carbon-neutral future, particularly
within the mobility sector. At IAA Mobility 2021 in Munich, Shanghai REFIRE
Technology Co., Ltd. (REFIRE), as a leading global provider of hydrogen fuel
cell technologies, presents its new cutting-edge hydrogen fuel cell system
PRISMA XII+ that incorporates the company's latest technological advancements,
providing heavy-duty trucks with greater power and efficiency. The European
debut of REFIRE's PRISMA XII+ is supported by Germany's eCap Mobility, a
strategic partner for the European market. The two companies have been
cooperating since late 2019 to develop rapidly deployable and sustainable
hydrogen mobility end use cases.
Such advantages as a longer range and faster refuelling, combined with a
greater load-carrying capacity make fuel cells a uniquely attractive option for
heavy-duty trucks, as this sector accelerates a transition towards
decarbonisation. The PRISMA XII+ fuel cell system targets the increasing number
of performance challenges faced by heavy-duty trucks deployed across a range of
different application scenarios. Efficiency upgrades for the system amount to a
net 10 per cent improvement over previous models with the balance of plant
(BOP) power consumption down by 10 kW. PRISMA XII+ is designed to operate for
at least 30,000 hours with less than a 10 per cent degradation in performance –
a figure to put it on par with heavy-duty internal combustion engines.
Founded in 2015 with the vision of accelerating mass adoption of zero-emission
fuel cell mobility and power, REFIRE has delivered more than 3,000 fuel cell
system variations to its customers. These have been deployed in over 2,700
operational fuel cell commercial vehicles and other project types in 17 cities
across China and in 5 other countries including Germany.
In August this year, a converted Mercedes-Benz Citaro bus equipped with a
REFIRE PRISMA fuel cell system made its operational debut at the Lower Oder
Valley National Park in Germany to provide a zero-emission passenger service
throughout the ecologically protected zone.
REFIRE also continues to expand its international footprint, both by
introducing its products and services into the European market and by reaching
global partnerships to accelerate its goal of sustainable mobility and power.
Assisted by TÜV Nord, recent RDW[1] certification granted to REFIRE's PRISMA
fuel cell system and its ASTRAWORKS factory system further paves the way for
REFIRE's European market expansion and is key to clustering reputable partners
and tailoring products for international markets.
