Erwin Hymer Group North America (EHGNA) has signed an exclusive supply and engineering cooperative agreement with Watt Fuel Cell Corp. located in Mount Pleasant, Pa., to introduce the Watt Fuel Cell technology into the RV market.
The integration of the Watt Imperium Fuel Cell allows the use of a propane to create clean electricity and heat.
The exclusive agreement between the two parties will introduce the Watt Fuel Cell into the proprietary EcoTrek technology currently used by EHGNA. The combination of the Watt Fuel Cell and the established EcoTrek technology will enable consumers live off the grid while having silent, on-demand power and achieving almost zero emissions, the company stated.
“This is a really exciting and important partnership as the two technologies combined allowed owners to live off the grid, anywhere, anytime, and always have power and charging capability using the incredible Watt Imperium Fuel Cell as long as they can fill their propane tank,” said Jim Hammill, president and CEO of EHGNA. “They will do so, knowing that they are producing little to no emissions. We have always been dedicated to being as green as possible both in our manufacturing processes and our technologies, so this is a perfect fit.”
“We are pleased to be working with Erwin Hymer Group North America, a forward-thinking innovative consumer products company, and are excited to be launching our products as part of their platform,” said Caine Finnerty, president and CEO of Watt Fuel Cell. “Our combined engineering and business resources will be pooled to achieve a real market impact for the hybrid clean technology solution we have been developing for many years here at WATT.”
