Mersey Fair Air are a start-up technology organisation based in the heart of Liverpool, accelerating the development of zero emission and low carbon vehicle technologies. Our preparatory work includes building and testing small alkaline fuel-cells (AFCs) under license for incorporation into vehicles. This scalable alkaline fuel-cell technology lends itself to applications that require large power requirements, such as HGVs, trains and marine.We are partnering with a specialist vehicle and volumetric concrete mixer supplier, KC3, which is our current primary target market before exploring other HGV opportunities. The refurbishment of a donor electric vehicle will be used to demonstrate the fuel cell technology, battery integration, battery management system (BMS) and hydrogen fuel tanks which will provide a platform to work with KC3 and other future HGV partners.A successful project will ensure that heavy goods hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles can be remanufactured, taking advantage of the hydrogen pathway that the Liverpool City Region has heavily invested in. These initiatives will substantially add to the governments levelling up agenda, providing green jobs, reducing pollution and increasing wealth across the North West of England.

Mersey Fair Air是一家位于利物浦市中心的初创技术组织，旨在加速零排放和低碳汽车技术的发展。我们的准备工作包括根据许可证建造和测试小型碱性燃料电池（AFC），以便纳入车辆。这种可扩展的碱性燃料电池技术适用于需要大功率需求的应用，如HGV，火车和船舶。我们正在与专业车辆和容积式混凝土搅拌机供应商KC3合作，这是我们目前的主要目标市场，然后再探索其他HGV机会。捐赠电动汽车的翻新将用于展示燃料电池技术，电池集成，电池管理系统（BMS）和氢燃料箱，这将提供一个与KC 3和其他未来HGV合作伙伴合作的平台。一个成功的项目将确保重型货物氢燃料电池动力汽车可以再制造，充分利用利物浦城市地区大量投资的氢气通道。这些举措将大大增加政府的议程，提供绿色就业机会，减少污染，增加英格兰西北部的财富。
