HySA Systems Competitive Knowledge Many business cases require large fleets in order to cost effectively convert from battery to fuel cell technology before achieving profitability e.g. Industries on the scale of the Walmart, HomeDepot and automotive sectors. This is primarily due to the need to purchase expensive hydrogen refuelling stations: HySA Systems however has gained specialised capability in producing low cost refuelling stations allowing for a stronger business case to convert smaller fleets. Reducing the fleet size requirements expands the market opportunities for hydrogen powered electric vehicles and further creates new markets e.g. a business case for a fleet of utility golf carts might become possible in future with low cost refuelling infrastructure. Additionally, HySA has specialised hydrogen storage technology that increases safety by reducing high pressure requirements. This can open up niche markets such as underground mining vehicles where operating with highly pressurised storage is not allowed. When diesel powered underground mining vehicles is banned from operating in underground environments via new regulatory frameworks, mines will have little choice but to use fuel cell technology as batteries simply do not have the energy storage capability for underground mining vehicles.
