Kohler Plans Hydrogen Fuel Cell Power System

Kohler, a data center industry global power partner, announced it plans to launch a hydrogen fuel cell power system with zero emission during use and introduced Conscious Care™, a maintenance program that reduces fuel consumption, GHG emissions, and maintenance costs. 

The company will also invest in the engineering, testing and endorsement of hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) fuels, including the integration of HVO fuels at Kohler's Brest, France, facility for generating testing and operation. HVO is capable of reducing net carbon emissions by up to 90% compared to fossil diesel while delivering a 10% reduction in NOx.

Kohler also announced its enhanced collaboration with Infrastructure Masons (iMasons) Climate Accord (ICA). The company will continue to work alongside more than 170 other like-minded companies to explore various environmentally focused subjects to advance accountability, reporting, and best practices. 

"At Kohler, we understand that meaningful environmental change comes from many companies working together towards a common goal," said Steve Zielke, Sr. Channel Manager - Data Centers, in a statement. "Our strengthened collaboration with ICA reaffirms our commitment to sustainability and actively participating in the conversation alongside our peers."
