Conclusions
The systems match the customer’s specifications
Two PEMFC UPS systems developed by Helion are in service since 2006 and 2008
No IV curve degradation
The commercialization : The increase of fuel price is a favorable factor for the commercialization.
Today there is already a real market:
In telecom (fuel cells back-up power already installed in India)
