The ‘P-grid’ will be the latest proof of concept for Honda’s fuel cell module in Europe – the latter of which will be displayed at the event. The all-in-one mobile generator, aimed to launch in 2026, will be easy to transport and deploy in various locations, from construction sites to emergency power facilities, or events.
Offering a reliable, clean energy source, the new P-grid will use hydrogen to provide an ideal temporary power supply, especially in urban or emission-free zones. Combining the advantages of fuel cell application while also acting as a peak shaver, working in combination with the electrical grid to ensure less power consumption in periods of high energy usage. It will also offer an ‘off-grid’ solution, allowing the unit to supply heavy peak construction equipment such as tower cranes from a relatively small engine.
In addition, it will be possible for the P-grid to be paired with solar energy systems to further enhance sustainability, making it ideal for festivals, events, and agricultural businesses – combining zero CO2 emissions and minimising noise pollution, all while delivering a reliable and efficient energy supply.
All powered by Honda’s hydrogen fuel cell, a mass production solution designed to make clean energy more accessible and efficient for businesses – with the potential to bring sustainable energy and zero emissions to a variety of industries.
“We are excited to be announcing our latest collaboration in Europe for our fuel cell module – further demonstrating the positive impact hydrogen power can have across a wide variety of applications” said Ingo Nyhues, Deputy General Manager, Energy & Hydrogen Business Division, Honda Motor Europe. “We are proud of our long-standing history working together with e-power and are excited to take this latest move into the hydrogen era together. The P-grid on Fuel Cell promises to be a fantastic proof of concept for our technology, bringing clean, reliable energy to a variety of heavy industries – particularly within construction. We look forward to seeing the positive impact this product can have going forward.”
Established in 1990 with expertise in electrical systems, fuel cells, and batteries, e-power tackles technical challenges across sectors including telecoms, railroad, fire departments and construction companies, helping to create custom-built sustainable machines.
“Our collaboration with Honda enables us to implement hydrogen technology in hybrid energy systems” added Kurt Van Dal, Owner/CEO, e-power. “With the P-grid powered by Honda’s Fuel Cell module, we make emission-free power supply and minimal noise pollution possible, ideal for sectors with strict sustainability goals. We look forward to embracing this technology as a future-ready company starting in 2026.”
