Protonex, Cummins partner to promote fuel cell power for RVs
Technology has set up a partnership with Cummins Onan, a business group of power generation and distribution giant Cummins Inc, to cooperate in the promotion of advanced fuel cell power solutions into the recreational vehicles market.
Under the terms of the agreement, Protonex and Cummins Onan will jointly conduct rigorous field testing of the Protonex M250-B fuel cell power system within RVs. Cummins will also provide Protonex with selected marketing assistance at trade shows and other related events. In addition, Cummins is in the process of becoming a certified installer of Protonex fuel cell systems developed for RVs. The resulting testing, certification, and promotional efforts are expected to facilitate the delivery of Protonex fuel cell power solutions to the RV market.
Protonex displayed its M250-B fuel cell power system on the Cummins Onan booth at the Annual Pennsylvania RV and Camping Show, one of the largest RV shows in the US.
The M250-B power system features key advances in fuel cell and hybrid power technology developed by Protonex. The proprietary technology blends the advantages of a fuel cell power generator with conventional hybrid batteries. The M250-B runs on safe, clean, biodegradable methanol. The system is configured to seamlessly integrate with existing power components typically found in an RV, including deepcycle batteries, generators, inverters, chargers, solar panels, and alternators.
The partnership with Cummins reverses Protonex's announcement in early summer that it would defer the launch of the M250-B into the RV market until next year, while it focused its resources on the military version of this product, the M250-CX [FCB, July 2009].
