Dec. 2006

IE Power delivered in September a 200kW inverter system to Xtreme Power for a primary power system to be used to smooth the load requirements of the South Pole Telescope. The system has been shipped for installation at the US National Science Foundation’s Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station research station in Antarctica. (http://spt.uchicago.edu)
The current South Pole station power plant is unable to manage the high peak power demands of the telescope. The energy storage system will allow the telescope to run continuously and reduce the peak power demand needs, and will also provide close to one hour of backup power (UPS). The combined system will be installed in the telescope control room and require no special environmental controls.


200kW Load Leveling System

IE Power has delivered a 150kW Power Converter System (PCS) to Sacré-Davey Innovations to be used in conjunction with a stationary Nuvera ForzaRPM PEM fuel cell. The PCS has been independently evaluated and tested by QPS/Entela to UL 1741 for grid parallel connection. A full test report is on file. The installation is to be integrated in a combined heat and power application at North Vancouver’s Easywash car wash. The project installation and monitoring is managed by Sacré-Davey Innovations, and is part of the Integrated Waste Hydrogen Utilization Project, a BC Hydrogen Highway member.
