IdaTech's Fuel Cell System Powered the Floating Olympic Rings
IdaTech, a global leader in the development and manufacture of clean and reliable extended run backup power fuel cell products, today announced that its fuel cell system provided power to the floating Olympic Rings in Vancouver's harbor. The power source for the 30-foot tall rings alternated between a bio-diesel generator and IdaTech's ElectraGenTM H2 zero emission hydrogen fuel cell system providing an environmentally friendly source of power.

During the Vancouver Olympics the Province of British Columbia encouraged the industry to utilize clean energy technology. IdaTech's ElectraGenTM H2 fuel cell system was selected as a source of reliable power to serve as an example that clean energy can be generated for applications in remote locations.

The ElectraGenTM H2 is a hydrogen fueled proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell system. Fuel cells are solid state electric generators that combine the best attributes of generators and batteries. PEM fuel cells only emit water vapor and heat, producing zero greenhouse gas. PEM fuel cells operate quietly and cause almost no vibrations.

IdaTech has recently sold over four hundred of these ElectraGenTM H2 fuel cell units to provide backup power to telecommunications networks in India and Asia, where grid reliability and low emissions are a priority.
