Sankosha and Hy9 Establish Strategic Partnership to Meet Telecom Backup Power Needs in Asia
HOPKINTON, MA, Jan 10, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Hy9 (http://www.hy9.com), the leading provider of point-of-use, high
purity hydrogen generation products for fuel cells, and Sankosha
Corporation, the leading provider of communications systems and
enclosures for the telecommunications industry, today announced their
agreement to collaborate to develop the Asian market for reformer
based fuel cell power systems which operate on readily available
methanol as fuel.
Masayoshi Ito, President of Sankosha Corporation, stated, "Our
partnership with Hy9 Corporation creates a strong team in Asia where
hydrogen generation systems are quickly becoming the preferred option
to on-site hydrogen storage tanks. Hy9 is the clear leader in this
field and Sankosha is excited to begin this new business together."
Gary Clarke, Hy9's President and CEO, said, "Sankosha has been
serving the telecom and railway markets in Japan, Taiwan and Korea
for over 80 years. Their knowledge of telecommunication customer
requirements and their product and service offerings are an excellent
complement to Hy9's HGS-M(TM) series hydrogen generator in providing
a solution to carriers' need for backup power systems other than a
diesel generator. Hy9 looks forward to working together to grow and
strengthen our partnership."
Hy9 and Sankosha will work together to integrate fuel cell stationary
power systems with Hy9's HGS on-site hydrogen generators and
enclosures for turnkey backup power systems suitable for Asian
markets including dense urban areas and rooftop installations. The
fuel processor, or reformer, converts a liquid fuel, in this case
methanol and water, into hydrogen for use with fuel cell power
systems.
