In 2003, a determined team of entrepreneurs, scientists, and engineers from around the world joined forces with a mission to introduce commercially viable, clean hydrogen fuel cell power. Adopting a global approach from the start, the newly formed international team founded Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies in Singapore and established its production facilities in Shanghai. The company is now expanding internationally through localized partnerships in Japan, Latin America, North America, and Europe.
The company's overall vision is aligned with world, national, and scientific leaders seeking to eliminate mankind's reliance on carbon-based fuels in favor of clean, low-cost energy for all the planet's citizens, generated from climate-friendly and renewable resources. By choosing the heart of the world’s fastest growing economy as a main base of operations, the company is at the forefront of change and a prime witness to world-scale energy and environmental challenges.
In addition to achieving a series of technological breakthroughs, Horizon has built a comprehensive technology and manufacturing platform capable of viably introducing fuel cells into early commercial markets. After providing a first glimpse of its possibilities with the successful worldwide launch of its first fuel cell powered consumer products, the company has now emerged as a world leading producer of high performance PEM fuel cells and electrolyzers.
Today, Horizon is producing extremely compact, lightweight, simple and cost-competitive PEM fuel cells that are suitable for many specialty and mainstream applications, including portable power, aerospace and clean transportation solutions.
Horizon Fuel Cell has introduced some exciting alternative education kits and toys so that kids can learn and be educated about alternative energy. The Ultimate Green Store is launching with the H-Racer but more exciting products from Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies will be introduced in 2009.
