Demonstration programs and field trials have been held in the US, Canada, Western Europe, Iceland, Australia and China. Ballard powered buses have accumulated more than 200,000 hours of operation, covering more than three million kilometers and transporting more than seven million passengers.6th Generation ModuleBased on the state of the art automotive fuelcell stack, Ballard’s FCvelocity-HD6 fuel cell module offers a design ideal for integration into bus applications.With the next-generation Ballard fuel cell atits core, the FCvelocity-HD6 establishes a new standard for cost, through design for volume manufacturing, and compatibility with customer system requirements. The heavy duty power-module features a control unit that can interface with a system controller, making it a plug and play product for any fuel cell or hybrid fuel cell bus platform.This next-generation module also offerssignificant advances in durability, powerdensity and fuel efficiency.AvailabilityPlease contact any of the following Ballard representatives for discussions regarding Ballard’s next- generation heavy duty fuel cell module. • Daljit Bawa (daljit.bawa@ballard.com)• Jeff Grant (jeff.grant@ballard.com)PRODUC T SPECIFICATIONS®
