International investors have committed R165.6 million to the development of the country’s first fuel cell factory in Dube TradePort. TheMercurySA

CHEM Energy president Angelin Maharaj said that the development of the state-of-the-art fuel cell factory had begun in September 2019 and was completed on schedule in March 2020.

A fuel cell is an electromechanical energy conversion device that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electrical energy and water. Maharaj said CHEM Energy had invested in South Africa to serve the South Africa market and it was an “ideal” launch market for Sub-Saharan Africa. Hal Koyama, director of CHEM Energy, said fuel cells enabled immediate and rapid deployment to rural areas to provide power to villages, clinics, schools and informal settlements where the Eskom grid was not available.
