FreezPak brings hydrogen power to frozen food distribution
FreezPak implemented Plug Power's GenDrive hydrogen fuel cells into its forklift truck fleet.
Efficiency is an essential element to all distribution centers, but it’s especially important for refrigerated and frozen food distribution centers where food safety is on the line. For instance, a lift truck using a battery rated for 8 hours at 77°F may have 50% life in a cold or frozen environment, impacting both productivity and the bottom line.
That’s why many refrigerated and frozen food distribution centers are turning to hydrogen fuel cells as an alternative power source. As a point of reference, more than 70% of Plug Power GenDrive fuel cell customers have a freezer space in their facilities.
