Rugged fuel cell power solutions for remote oil & gas operations.

SAFCell transfers oil & gas technologies to Advent

For oil & natural gas companies, finding dependable power sources for monitoring remote operations in extreme conditions was a challenging and unsolved problem. To provide a solution, SAFCell developed and deployed fuel efficient, rugged, and maintenance free fuel cells that operated on the same industrial grade methanol used at the wellhead. Through frigid Canadian winters and hot Texan summers, these fuel cells provided reliable power for essential monitoring and communication units at remote oil and gas sites.

In 2021 SAFCell transferred this technology to Advent Technologies, a leader in high-temperature proton electrolyte membrane fuel cells with the expertise and resources to make a global impact in the oil & gas sector. Advent has since made rapid progress and developed the M-ZERØ™ family of oil & gas fuel cell products.  With the M-ZERØ™ devices, Advent aims to play a key role decarbonizing the oil and gas industry.
