The solution encompasses a complete cooling sub-system, power conditioning equipment, and hydrogen storage infrastructure integrated with Vertiv\u2122 HPL Lithium-Ion batteries, Liebert\u00ae EXL S1 UPS system, and the Vertiv\u2122 DynaFlex Energy Management Controller. The Power Module H2 solution is part of the 1 MW Vertiv Customer Experience Center microgrid solution, including a 1MW AC Solar PV array and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vertiv.com\/en-us\/products-catalog\/critical-power\/battery-energy-storage-system-bess\/vertiv-dynaflex-battery-energy-storage-system\/\">Vertiv\u2122 DynaFlex<\/a>\u00a0Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Initial validations and tests have demonstrated the successful operation of zero-GHG emission backup power integrated into an uninterruptible power architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe unprecedented adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) is driving a need for eco-friendly power solutions for our customers, with a focus on zero-carbon and low-carbon energy alternatives,\u201d said Viktor Petik, vice president of Vertiv infrastructure solutions.\u00a0\u00a0\u201cThe successful fuel cell proof-of-concept with Ballard provides a viable option for customers strengthening their data center sustainability strategy and those moving to a future-ready Bring Your Power (BYOP) model.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vertiv\u2019s Power Module H2 is an alternative for meeting the escalating energy demands of future data centres and zero GHG emission backup power generation. The prefabricated and factory-tested system provides a rapidly deployable and scalable power infrastructure for new data centers and the capability of retrofitting existing sites without redesigning the electrical infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a geographic focus on North America Europe and selected opportunities in other geographies, the Vertiv Power Module H2 solution offers several advantages for critical infrastructure applications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single-supplied complex power infrastructure<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zero GHG emission\u00a0\u00a0and low noise backup power generation\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rapid Dynamic power response<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low maintenance compared to diesel generator backup solutions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Extended backup (days) \u2013 limited only by fuel storage capacity\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Optimized footprint for MW scale applications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scalable in multi-MW UPS and Fuel Cell applications\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Vertiv Power Module H2 solution broadens the Vertiv power portfolio. It is an innovative contribution to the recently revealed \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vertiv.com\/en-us\/about\/one-vertiv-one-world\/\">One Vertiv, One World<\/a>\u201d plan, part of Vertiv\u2019s responsible business strategy to enable a more sustainable future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vertiv and Ballard\u2019s teams will demonstrate and discuss fuel cell-powered standby power applications for data centers and critical infrastructures at Smarter E Europe 2024, Europe\u2019s largest alliance of exhibitions for the energy industry, including Intersolar Europe, ees Europe, Power2Drive Europe, and EM-Power Europe.
