The main advantages are higher lifetime duration compared to batteries and higher efficiency compared to motor-based generators. Drawbacks are the not existing infrastructure,<\/span>\u00a0the low storage density and the high cost of the required hydrogen as fuel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">For this reason ZBT together with partners is developing a LPG-based Reformer module for feeding hydrogen-based LT-PEM fuel cell systems. Bases are ZBTs reformer concept and desulphurisation unit, a web based control by Creative Electronic and E-PAC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0by DMTpe suitable for mass production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The high efficient module including peripheral components is a prototypical<\/span>\u00a0device with a high level of development in terms of functionality and manufacturing. It generates a synthetic gas with a hydrogen power output of 3<span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">kW at a maximum CO concentration of 10<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"EN-GB\">ppm.
