Extreme E and AFC Energy extend hydrogen partnership

Extreme E has teamed up with AFC Energy for Season 2, where it will use its zero-emission fuel cell and hydrogen power generation technology.

This is a first for Extreme E, which aims to be environmentally friendly and have the least possible negative impact on the communities where its races take place by using hydrogen fuel cell generators for power generation. AFC Energy has developed a cutting-edge solution for the production of renewable jet fuel that is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. The ODYSSEY 21 E-SUVs on the grid are powered by hydrogen that is generated from water and the sun.

Hydrogen power generation from AFC Energy’s zero-emission hydrogen generator powered the Championship’s ODYSSEY 21s in harsh operating conditions from Saudi Arabia to Greenland during the inaugural 2021 season.

When it comes to the 2022 season, which includes races in South America for the first time, the new contract guarantees that all Extreme E vehicles will be powered by a zero-emission fuel cell system that produces only water as a byproduct.

Alejandro Agag, CEO and Founder of Extreme E, said: “Working with AFC Energy has enabled Extreme E to be the world’s first sporting event to use zero emission power generators. From the outset, our vision of using battery powered race cars could only be truly fulfilled if we could generate power for them in a completely sustainable way. AFC Energy has enabled us to do that, and we are delighted to be using their technology again for the 2022 season.

“We are setting the standard for clean fuel provision in any situation – we have proved it can be done and hope that our example will now be followed by other sporting events.”

Adam Bond, CEO of AFC Energy, said: “We are delighted to be extending our collaboration with Extreme E into 2022. The inaugural race season enabled us to demonstrate the possibilities of AFC Energy’s zero-emission power generators while operating in high pressure, high-profile and extreme environments. This world first showed what can already be achieved in moving the world to zero-emission technologies.

“Last year the use of our fuel cell by Extreme E prevented a significant amount of CO2 from being emitted into the atmosphere. In 2022, at each race we expect to provide enough clean energy to power over 1,000 U.K. homes. This contract is just one in a strong pipeline of system sales and lease opportunities which will underpin future revenue growth as we seek to capitalise on our leading position to displace diesel generators within the next decade.”
