WTEI Secures Contract for Mobile H2 Charger Development
Waste to Energy International (WTEI) is pleased to announce the award of a new contract to design and evaluate an innovative Mobile H2 Charger system. This project aims to provide clean, on-demand electricity for electric vehicles and select stationary clients, such as small hotels or restaurants, in areas where permanent infrastructure may be limited or unavailable. The proposed system should include the benefits of the existing market systems whilst conforming to the customer’s specific requirements.

WTEI’s engineering team prepared a detailed Evaluation Report covering the system’s technical specifications and economic feasibility. The analysis determined that the optimal setup requires a 40ft high-cube container to house all essential components, including a hydrogen tank, fuel cells, air compressor, humidifier, and cooling systems. The fuel cell stack, rated around 0.5 MW, operates at approximately 50% efficiency, converting stored hydrogen into zero-emission electricity.
Key findings highlight the container layout, sizing of components, and estimated CAPEX of roughly $700,000. Annual operating costs depend primarily on hydrogen supply, with overall OPEX potentially reaching $650,000, assuming current hydrogen prices. Further financial modeling examined fuel cell efficiency, hydrogen production methods, and potential subsidies. Although immediate market conditions present challenges, projections suggest that improvements in hydrogen technology and cost reductions could rapidly enhance the Mobile H2 Charger’s commercial viability.

WTEI has demonstrated its commitment to pioneering clean energy solutions by completing this comprehensive evaluation. The Mobile H2 Charger concept underscores WTEI’s innovative approach to addressing global needs for sustainable power while also offering flexible deployment and significant potential for reducing carbon emissions in the transportation sector.
