Oorja Protonics

Oorja Protonics commercializes a 1,000 W DMFC designed for use in forklifts, and other vehicles in the materials handling industry. The DMFC is fitted inside the battery tray of the existing machinery and continuously charges the vehicle battery [50, 65]. In Table 9.3 are summarized the performance characteristics of DMFC portable generators. 

Whereas Plug Power, Nuvera, and Hydrogenics using pressurized hydrogen as fuel (350bar) the Oorja Protonic systems use methanol. The Oorja DMFC system has a lower power output than the hydrogen systems and it does not replace the complete battery, but in combination with a conventional battery it is used as a range extender.
