What specific problem are you solving?
The global energy system faces two major challenges: reliance on polluting diesel generators and increasing strain on the power grid. Diesel generators, widely used for backup and remote power, emit high CO₂, NOₓ, and particulate matter, worsening air pollution and climate change. The European Environment Agency links air pollution to over 300,000 premature deaths annually, with diesel emissions as a major contributor. These generators are also noisy, high-maintenance, and dependent on fossil fuels, which are becoming costlier and less reliable.
At the same time, power grids worldwide are under growing pressure. Rising electricity demand from digitalization, electric vehicles, and electrification of industries is straining supply. Extreme weather events, cyber threats, and aging infrastructure increase blackout risks. In 2021, Europe saw multiple near-miss grid failures, and blackouts are becoming more frequent. Combining an unreliable grid and polluting backup solutions highlights the urgent need for cleaner, more resilient power alternatives.
What is your solution?
PowerUP Energy Technologies provides hydrogen fuel cell generators that deliver clean, reliable, and efficient power. Unlike traditional diesel generators, our units produce zero emissions, operate silently, and require minimal maintenance.
Our generators use proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell technology, which converts hydrogen into electricity through an electrochemical process. This process generates only water vapour and heat as byproducts, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil fuel-based generators. The technology ensures high efficiency, lightweight design, and durability, making our generators ideal for off-grid locations, backup power, telecommunication applications, construction, defence, and remote industries.
Designed to withstand harsh conditions, our fuel cell generators are corrosion-resistant and operate effectively in extreme temperatures. They also integrate seamlessly with renewable energy sources like solar and wind, providing a sustainable solution for uninterrupted power.
By replacing diesel generators, PowerUP’s technology helps reduce carbon footprints, improve air quality, and support the transition to clean energy. Our scalable solutions ensure that businesses, homes, and industries have access to reliable power without harming the environment.

Who does your solution serve, and in what ways will the solution impact their lives?
PowerUP’s hydrogen fuel cell generators serve critical industries and individuals who need reliable, long-running, and clean power. We focus on Europe and North America, targeting telecommunications, pharmacies, hospitals, security & defence, critical infrastructure, off-grid housing, and leisure mobility like camping and sailing.
Many of these sectors struggle with unreliable grid power or polluting diesel generators. Telecommunications and critical infrastructure require backup power to prevent disruptions. Hospitals and pharmacies need reliable energy to store medicine and operate essential equipment. Off-grid homes and leisure users seek sustainable alternatives to diesel for extended use in remote locations.
Our solution provides silent, emission-free, and low-maintenance power that ensures continuous operation in remote areas. Customers, including Telia, Tele2, NATO and the European Space Agency, trust PowerUP’s technology for its reliability. Additionally, our global distribution network across more than 10 countries, including Norway, the Netherlands, and Italy, strengthens market accessibility.
By replacing fossil fuel generators, PowerUP helps reduce emissions, improve energy security, and lower operating costs for businesses and individuals. Our technology empowers users with sustainable, long-lasting energy solutions, ensuring power where it’s needed most.
