Proton Power Systems Plc (LON:PPS) has signed a “significant” framework agreement to supply a German blue chip company with various emergency power units.
The fuel cell developer says the deal – which has a total value of €15mln – will see the firm supply and install a variety of power units over a seven-year period.
“This framework agreement is another milestone that will provide year on year revenue streams as commercialization of our core technology is now realised,” said Faiz Francoise Nahab, chief executive.
“This is the proof that the fuel cell technology is commercially attractive to customers resulting in projects which will provide years of revenues for Proton.”
The deal comes after a difficult 2015 for the company that saw sales slashed in half.
Proton’s technology allows electricity to be generated without producing any harmful emissions.
The firm says it’s confident demand for hydrogen-based applications will continue to increase over the coming years.
