HyLIFT-DEMO European Demonstration of hydrogen powered fuel cell fork lifts
About HyLIFT-DEMO • Large scale demonstration of Fuel Cell Hydrogen (FCH) powered FLTs (Fork Lift Trucks) • Two year demonstration: • 30 units of 2.5 - 3.5 tons • Fully integrated 3rd generation fuel cell systems • Hydrogen refuelling infrastructure at three end-user sites (sites tbd) • 4,000 hours accelerated laboratory durability tests on • life time • shock sensitivity • vibration • climate exposure
Other HyLIFT-DEMO Objectives • Validate value proposition & reaching of commercial and environmental targets • Data acquisition of targets: durability, efficiency and costs for 3rd generation technology • Plan and secure initiation of R&D of 4th generation commercial products • Ensure commercial market deployment of FCH FLTs in Europe by 2013 • Development of suggestions for European / national / regional support mechanisms • Identify future Regulation, Codes & Standard needsto enable commercial high volume certification & use of hydrogen powered fuel cell forklifts
