Plug's GenCore power for police radio tower I n the US, Plug Power has installed two GenCore fuel cell systems to provide backup power for a New York State Police radio tower in eastern Rensselaer County.
Installed in tandem, the two GenCore units can provide a combined maximum of 10 kW of electric power. The emergency response radio tower requires approximately 7.5 kW. In addition, each fuel cell system has enough stored hydrogen to provide backup power for 72 h without being refueled.
At the Grafton tower, which is on the outer reaches of the statewide network, Plug Power's fuel cell systems will provide the extended run-time needed for continuity of operations during a lengthy grid outage. The continuous availability of the radio system is considered critical to ensuring that the police are able to respond effectively to emergencies and ensure public safety.
The Grafton systems are the last of 22 installations funded by the New York Power Authority as part of a program to deploy fuel cells for backup power at public safety communications facilities across New York state.
The GenCore product line includes backup power products for the telecoms, uninterruptible power supply and electric utility markets. The hydrogen-fueled GenCore 5 kW backup fuel cell system is available in seven configurations to serve the broad requirements of these diverse applications.
