In the race towards net-zero carbon emissions, companies across the UK are looking for innovative solutions to replace their diesel generators and reduce their reliance on fossil fuels. That’s where GeoPura comes in, providing a zero-emission solution that eliminates the need for diesel generators in off-grid, temporary, supplementary, and backup power situations. The key to this innovative solution is the GeoPura Hydrogen Power Unit (HPU), which provides large-scale, reliable energy wherever and whenever the grid cannot support, with its only emissions being pure water.
So how does a GeoPura Hydrogen Power Unit work?
The process starts with renewable energy, such as electricity generated from wind or solar PV, which is then used to power an electrolysis process that generates hydrogen. The hydrogen is then stored and transported via road to any location where a GeoPura Hydrogen Power Unit is ready to convert it to green electrical power.
Once on-site, the hydrogen is fed through a fuel cell, which produces DC electricity. The DC electricity is then converted to AC using inverters, before being conditioned to deliver clean and uninterruptible, 400V three-phase AC electricity. Advanced power controls and onboard batteries are also utilized to ensure a fully redundant, critically backed supply, capable of peak shaving and grid augmentation, as well as providing off-grid energy for a range of applications.
One of the biggest benefits of the GeoPura HPU is its ability to displace diesel generators, which are commonly used in off-grid and temporary power situations. Diesel generators are notoriously polluting and emit harmful emissions such as nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide. In contrast, the GeoPura HPU produces zero emissions, offering a clean and sustainable solution for businesses looking to reduce their carbon footprint and achieve their net-zero ambitions.
Another benefit of the GeoPura HPU is its reliability. The unit delivers 250kVA of standard three-phase, 400V critical electrical power, backed up by an integral 260kWh battery system. This provides a reliable and continuous supply of power, ensuring that critical operations can continue uninterrupted. The unit is also designed to be easily transported and installed, making it a flexible solution for a range of applications.
The only emissions produced by the GeoPura HPU are water and heat, which can be used elsewhere on-site, offering a truly sustainable solution. By choosing the GeoPura HPU, businesses can eliminate their reliance on diesel generators and reduce their carbon footprint, while also benefitting from reliable and uninterrupted power.
For those responsible for decarbonisation in the UK and globally, the GeoPura HPU offers a game-changing solution. By eliminating fossil fuels from off-grid, temporary, and back-up power, companies can significantly reduce their carbon footprint and achieve their Net-Zero ambitions sooner. Moreover, as the demand for clean energy continues to grow, the GeoPura HPU is a forward-thinking solution that will help companies stay ahead of the curve and meet the challenges of a rapidly changing energy landscape.
