Hydrogen power storage partnership launched

A new standalone power supply partnership has been launched between LAVO, Ampcontrol and Boundary Power to develop hydrogen based solutions to regional and remote power users, along with data centres and other energy intensive industries.

Hydrogen storage company LAVO, electrical, electronic and control system specialists Ampcontrol and standalone power system company Boundary Power will work together over the next two years to identify the use of LAVO’s hydrogen storage solutions (pictured) and other zero-carbon products in different demonstration sites.

Potential applications include:

• Standalone hybrid power supplies
• Containerised solutions for small and utility scale wind and solar projects
• And packaged power and battery solutions for data centres, industrial and mining applications.

LAVO CEO Alan Yu said: “LAVO’s hydrogen storage technology is ideally suited for integration with remote standalone power systems and for other containerised and mobile power solutions.

“We’re thrilled to be working with Ampcontrol and Boundary Power to explore the options for wider use of our products.”

Lavo has developed the world’s first integrated hybrid hydrogen battery (pictured) that combines with rooftop solar to deliver sustainable, reliable and renewable green energy.

The company’s founding investors are Providence Asset Group Early Stage Venture Capital Fund and UNSW Research Partners.

Ampcontrol CEO Rod Henderson said: “Ampcontrol has a long history in the development of innovative products and Boundary Power possesses industry leading experience in utility-grade stand-alone power solutions.

“Our partnership with LAVO is the continuation of our commitment to finding the best solutions to the energy challenges facing remote areas and energy intensive industries.”
