AFC Energy PLC is a developer of hydrogen fuel cell technologies which focus on the displacement of diesel generators in stationary and maritime applications.
In 2010, it commissioned a hydrogen fuel cell named Alpha System at the Chinchilla underground coal gasification facility, operated by Linc Energy.
Combining these technologies allowed usage of hydrogen, produced by the underground coal gasification process, as a feedstock for the fuel cell.
