Plug Power Introduces Combined Heat And Power Fuel Cell
LATHAM, NY — Plug Power Inc. recently introduced the GenSys™ 5C, its new combined heat and power (CHP) fuel cell system, at the Babylon (NY) Town Hall. The unit is installed and operating at the town hall where it provides supplemental heat and electricity for the facility.
The Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) “is proud to be a pioneer in the field of fuel cell technology,” said chairman Richard M. Kessel. “LIPA believes that fuel cells hold the key to achieving true distributed generation that makes economic and environmental sense. Installation of this unit will help us better understand the issues associated with the integration of fuel cells at customers’ facilities where heat produced by the units can also be used.”
