The company stated that has two pilot projects underway based on hydrogen fuel cells.
Global developer ACCIONA installed a zero-emission #hydrogen fuel cell generator set (GEH2®), developed by EODev on the bridge project.This unit replaces the use of a diesel genset that had been used to date.
This is the first experience at national level in the construction sector in which a genset of these characteristics is fully operational. It is expected that, during the initial implementation period (six months), the consumption of about 8,000 liters of fossil fuel will be avoided, thus reducing emissions equivalent to 24 tons of CO2.
In addition, the company has installed a “zero emissions” lighting tower based on a hydrogen fuel cell, developed by #ATLAS COPO. This prototype has been installed in the area adjacent to the project’s office huts.
#ACCIONA has already employed and validated sustainable and innovative solutions, for examples – the construction project of the Norte III Penitentiary in Zubieta (San Sebastián, Spain), where a tower crane was operated from a hydrogen-based portable zero-emission electric generator, and in the construction of the CA-1907 road, New Access to Alcalá del Valle (Cádiz), where a generator set based on H2 fuel cell, powered from green methanol reformed “in-situ”, was used.
