customer’s charging experience is no diff erence experience is no diff erent from that of a grid-connected charger, and by utilising this new technology we can provide much-needed EV charging facilities sooner, meeting the growing demand without having a negative impact on the environment.”
THE GEOPURA HPU The GeoPura HPU harnesses the power of hydrogen to generate electricity, off ering a clean and eff icient alternative to traditional diesel generators to provide off -grid and supplementary power for EV charging. The units utilise a fuel cell system that converts hydrogen gas into electricity, emitting only water as a by-product. Each HPU delivers 250kVA of
standard three-phase, 400V critical electrical power backed up by an integral 216kWh battery system. Multiple units can be combined to provide seamless capability for any scope of project. “If we can charge our EVs from

the grid, where in the UK 50% of the energy is renewable, that is by far the best option, however our existing distribution grid wasn’t designed to provide the energy required for an electrifi ed transportation network,” explains Andrew Cunningham, CEO of GeoPura. “This means that many
locations where we need to charge our cars don’t have suff icient power available to give the service that their owners require. GeoPura’s HPU EV charging solution presents a game-changing approach to maximise electrical grid capacity and ensure seamless and sustainable charging for EVs, today.” By integrating the GeoPura HPUs,
Westmorland Family are able to implement a combination of battery and renewable hydrogen fuel to enable the augmentation of their electricity grid, and provide all the power their customers need during peak times. The partnership sets a precedent for the future of EV charging infrastructure, with hydrogen power off ered as a novel solution to accelerating the roll-out of these points until the distribution of electricity can catch up with the demand.”
