The 614 Hydrogen train, which was showcased at Bo’ness, will soon have its 70 kW Ballard fuel cell system (previously used to partly power the train) relocated to Eden Campus at the University of St Andrews, where it will be integrated into the Hydrogen Living Laboratory (HLL).
The HLL is St Andrews’ cluster of hydrogen related technologies including a NEL C10 electrolyser, as Hyundai Nexo Hydrogen Car, 250 kg of high pressure Hydrogen storage, and a hydrogen refuelling station.
The 70 kW PEM fuel cell system enables the generation of power from hydrogen for the local grid and beyond during peak demand periods. As part of the ENSIGN project, the production and use of hydrogen will be modeled in the development of a digital twin.
