SFC Energy starts production of hydrogen and methanol fuel cells in India
In Germany, SFC Energy AG, a supplier of hydrogen and methanol fuel cells for stationary and mobile hybrid power solutions, has launched the manufacturing of hydrogen and methanol fuel cells at its New Delhi/Gurgaon site in India.
“The climate-friendly transformation of the economy is an urgent challenge and a significant common concern for Germany and India. Hydrogen and its derivatives will play an important role in this transformation. By producing locally, SFC Energy makes German technology more accessible to India and its economy, thus making an important contribution to the success of the energy transition,” said Robert Habeck, Germany’s Federal Minister for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection.
The mobile and stationary fuel cell solutions manufactured in the new factory produce clean electricity based on hydrogen and methanol, the company said.
“As a technology leader with the experience of more than 65,000 fuel cells installed worldwide, SFC Energy is a perfect partner to support the Indian government in its ambitious goals towards a sustainable and climate-friendly energy supply. With the start of manufacturing at the new site in Delhi, we fulfill the ‘Make in India’ requirements as well as the ‘National Green Hydrogen Mission’ and benefit from our long-standing presence and partnership in this growth market,” Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC Energy AG, said.
