SFC Smart Fuel Cell AG, technology and market leader for mobile and off-grid fuel cell product solutions, presents the new EFOY product family of fuel cells - the successor of the Company's successful SFC A50 fuel cell.
Now consumers and industry users can select between three fuel cell models with various levels of performance for powering their electrical devices: EFOY 1600, EFOY 1200, and EFOY 600 (with a charging capacity of 1.6 kWh, 1.2 kWh, resp. 0.6 KWh per day).
The EFOY family's top model, the EFOY 1600 exhibits a 33 percent increase in power output over its predecessor.
Weight, sound emission and fuel consumption of the EFOY product family have been further reduced. With their innovative interactive remote control and im-proved software the new EFOY fuel cells have become even more user friendly.
"The new EFOY product family is result of the experiences and ideas of our cus-tomers from three years of using our fuel cells in the most diverse applications", says Dr. Jens Mueller, SFC Managing Director Technology.
"Now we can offer three fuel cell models with different levels of performance, each of which repre-sents a perfect all-round carefree energy solution for the user." Pieter Bots, SFC Managing Director Sales & Marketing, adds:
"By pursuing a consistent innovation process we have now set the stage for the expansion of our fuel cells' excep-tional market success.
The fact that users can now select which level of perform-ance they want will pave the way into a wide field of applications.
At the same time we will continue to open new international markets for our established applications. In this way we are further increasing our competitive advantage in the market."
This new dimension in energy convenience is also reflected in the high-tech EFOY product design and the new EFOY brand appearance, which will accom-pany all products and marketing efforts.
The new product logo is the expression of the unique advantages combined in the EFOY fuel cell that customers have come to appreciate: silent, lightweight and environmentally friendly power when-ever and wherever you need it.
The new EFOY product family by SFC is sure to further expand the exceptional market success of SFC's fuel cells in leisure, industry and military applications.
Today the popular commercial SFC fuel cells provide electrical energy for motor homes, sail boats, holiday cabins, traffic control systems, observation applica-tions, measuring and early warning sensors, light electric vehicles and many more.
And their number continuously increases. An SFC product also was the world's first fuel cell to be fitted as standard in a vehicle: the prestigious Hymer "SClass" motor home uses the SFC A50 to provide onboard electricity.
