ACAL Energy Ltd is a developer of Fuel Cell systems, modules and consumable chemicals for a range of uses including stationary, residential and automotive applications requiring larger than 1 kW of power. Its innovative designs will deliver substantial cost savings in Fuel Cell systems and performance improvements in PEM ('Proton Exchange Membrane') that will accelerate the adoption of PEM Fuel Cell technologies in key markets.
ACAL Energy was founded in August 2004 to research and optimise Dr Andrew Creeth's invention for addressing the inherent technical limitations of the cathode side of membrane based Fuel Cells. Dr Creeth has been working in the field for more than 20 years and has synergized recent advances in chemistry with a process developed in the 1950's.«Less

| Description: | ACAL Energy's technology applies innovations in chemistry to overcome the commercial barriers of a previously proven technical route for the cathode. ACAL Energy has applied known solutions from other applications to demonstrate the potential for dramatically improved performance. The key to ACAL Energy's innovation is leveraging these solutions from other industries in a systems based approach which will reduce the current forecasted timescales for commercialisation of Fuel Cell systems. As a cathode system the technology can be adapted to work with any fuel source including hydrogen, methanol, ethanol and sodium borohydride. By using non-precious metal catalysts and adapting the engineering of the standard Fuel Cell stack, the company has demonstrated that being powered by FlowCath® will enable cost effective power generation, as well as providing solutions to a number of other technological barriers that are preventing the global commercialisation of Fuel Cells. |
