HANDLING FC BACKUP POWER IS MUCH EASIER BECAUSE OF THE LOW WEIGHT
1313
Hydrogen backup power is not only lighter, it is also lower cost than battery backup
Swapping 1 cylinder at 13 kg (1 man operation) is an easy task compared to swapping a battery at 30 or 53 kg (two man operation)
Li-ion battery Lead acid battery
13 kg
53 kg
Hydrogen cylinder
30 kg
Hydrogen backup power is evaluated by operator of sensitive infrastructure to be a more reliable than any other options

TRAIN – AN EMERGING OPPORTUNITY
• Market driven due to need to replace diesel driven locomotives1
• Investment in grid to electrify is too high
• Fuel cell driven locomotives is to be the preferred future solution
• Hexagon Composites is already engaged in projects

• Market driven due to need toreplace fossil fuel in short sea andferries1
• Batteries will only cover a certainrange, and might require heavyinvestment in landside bufferbatteries for charging (too low effectin grid)
• Fuel cell in hybrid with batteries willbe the solution for severalapplications
• Hexagon is already engaged inprojects
