Ballard Power Systems (BLDP - Free Report) has won a $7.7-million worth order of membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) from Guangdong Synergy Ballard Hydrogen Power Co., Ltd. (Synergy-Ballard JVCo). This order is placed in pursuant to the MEA Long-Term Supply Agreement and Stack Assembly License Agreement signed between Ballard Powerand Synergy-Ballard JVCoin 2019.
Notably, MEAs are a crucial component of every cell in a fuel cell stack as it facilitates the chemical process to generate clean electricity from a combination of hydrogen and oxygen.
Ballard Power's leading fuel cell technology to provide clean energy is currently powering more than 650 Fuel Cell Electric Buses and above 2,200 fuel cell trucks in China. Further, this order receipt indicates continued progress and market demand for Ballard Power fuel cell technology in heavy- and medium-duty motive applications in China including buses and commercial trucks.
Moreover, management expects to witness higher adoption of fuel cell electric vehicles in China as the national and provincial governments are increasingly prioritizing the decarbonization of mobility with zero-emission solutions. Ballard Power's fuel cell technology is gaining popularity on the back of reliability, affordability as it is cheaper-than-conventional power sources and sustainability.
