Taylor Woodrow deployed our H‑Power Tower on their construction site in Marston Vale, Bedford, UK. Delivered with joint‑venture and power specialists Omexom for the National Grid. The JV project unites two companies within the VINCI Group, the world’s largest construction organisation.
Our H-Power hydrogen fuel cell generated zero emission energy to power onsite welfare cabins, replacing the use of diesel generation.
Our hydrogen fuel cell power generator added to the decarbonisation of the site, with solar, wind and battery storage also operating. Ensuring the off-grid site had zero emissions power whatever the weather.
The deployment will support VINCI Group's goal to deliver a 30% reduction in carbon emissions by 2027. By replacing the onsite diesel generator the project prevented emissions of climate changing carbon dioxide and air polluting nitrogen oxides.
We are pleased to be working with H-Power, (formerly AFC Energy) to use hydrogen fuel cells to replace diesel generation onsite. It is part of our commitment to supporting VINCI's sustainability targets.Andrew Thomsett
