Our Competitive Advantage
When it comes to choosing the right fuel cell provider, it is important to partner with a manufacturer that can deliver products with the latest technology, highest quality and best customer service. From a technology perspective, our fuel cells embed a myriad of proprietary designs that deliver a breakthrough across many metrics of performance. See how Loop Energy’s patented technology is above and beyond fuel cell industry standards.
Increased Fuel Efficiency
Fuel efficiency is already the number one driver of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). It will become more important as product costs mature. Our patented eFlow® technology enables us to deliver:
- Up to 16% higher fuel efficiency vs same class alternatives
- Lower fuel consumption per distance driven
- Reduction in fuel cost over the lifetime of every vehicle
What does all of this mean to the operator?
- Fleet operators can capture up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in savings for each vehicle in their fleet. Imagine multiplying that by the number of vehicles in a fleet!
- Fuel consumption savings also translate to higher operational uptime, wider radius or longer distance for driving range.
- This can also mean reducing system weight and size, which can mean reduced system cost, increased payload, or simply a higher flexibility in the vehicle's design.
Increased Peak Power
Peak power is the key to optimum balance between space, cost and performance. Our eFlow® architecture enables significantly more peak power versus the same class fuel cell alternatives:
- Up to 90% more peak power vs. competitors in comparable package size
- Higher payload capacity and range
- Wider range of operating parameters
What does all of this mean to the operator?
- Almost 2x greater ability to match seasonal, terrain or payload related increase in drive cycle kWh/Km energy requirements, without overbuilding the most expensive part of the system: the fuel cell stack
- Reduced system weight and size. For example, our T600 60kW unit is 75-100 Kg lighter than most alternatives
10x Current Density Uniformity
Our eFlow® architecture enables critical features that are unique to Loop Energy’s fuel cells:
- Even heat distribution provides greater product durability
- Up to 10x better current density uniformity
- Lower service and maintenance costs
This translates to our ability to operate at >100% condensing humidity without the issue of “flooding.”
This reduces over 50% of the key reasons for fuel cell performance degradation.
What does all of this mean to the operator?
- Higher Operating Uptime
- Significantly Less Maintenance
- More Robust Fuel Cell Performance
