logistic challenge. Another industry relying heavily on
ultra reliable off-grid power is oil & gas. Here power is needed for the safe
operation and surveillance of wells, pipelines and production sites at
remote locations.
In the past, these industries had to depend on generators and large,
heavy battery banks. In the climatic conditions of India, solar modules
alone cannot reliably operate power off-grid applications.
“There is an urgent need in India for alternative technologies that will
reliably work in any weather and season, feature easy installation and

logistics, and can be hybridized with other power sources”, says
Karandeep Singh, Managing Director of FC TecNrgy Pvt Ltd. “SFC Energy’s
DMFC performed well in our tests in the most difficult and challenging
climatic conditions, e.g. at extremely high altitudes up to 16,500 feet and
in extremely low temperatures. After one year of consistently marketing,
demonstrating and validating this technology in Indian conditions we can
now offer our customers in India a reliable, environmentally friendly, highly
flexible power source that will bring them major operational advantages
and huge savings in fuel & related fuel logistics. We see a huge potential
for this technology here.”
“We see a growing demand for our market leading portfolio of off-grid
power solutions in India, as more and more industrial applications are
being used away from the grid”, says Dr. Peter Podesser, CEO of SFC
Energy AG. “Our fuel cells also serve as back-up power sources in gridbased applications to reliably power industrial and defense instrument
and system in those times, when the public grid is down. We selected FC
TecNrgy Pvt Ltd as our partner because of their excellent expertise and
market
knowledge
and
their
in-depth
technical
know-how
and
capabilities. They have an excellent network of defense and industry
customers.”
SFC fuel cells can be hybridized with other power sources and integrated
into weatherproof cabinets as a robust off-grid and back-up power
source for industrial applications in the most demanding environmental
scenarios. They are fully automatic, maintenance free, remote-controlled,
with almost zero noise and thermal emissions, and will reliably operate in
the wide temperature range of different climate regions in India and up to
very high mountain altitudes.
