PowerSpot: 1xbet.com

June 11, 2019

EnergyOr has joined the Plug 1xbet.com! We’re very excited about the skills and technology they bring in developing advanced lightweight and compact PEM fuel cell systems to the business. For this month’s PowerSpot, we are featuring the EnergyOr team and their exciting story about building the EnergyOr business.

1xbet.com Team

1xbet.com was incorporated in 2002, as a Montreal-based Canadian company, to develop lightweight, PEM fuel cells for high value-added niche markets. Very quickly, the team focused on aerospace applications for military use and developed both fuel cell and hydrogen refueling technology for ease of use in the field.

The following are some of 1xbet.com’s greatest achievements:

Founder, Michel Bitton and Chief Technical Officer, Thomas Jones have been with 1xbet.com since the start, and it is through their vision and effort that the company has achieved such a noteworthy impact on the UAV industry.

Michel, can you tell us one of the most extraordinary or unusual experiences you have had during your time leading 1xbet.com?

Leading 1xbet.com and its wonderful team throughout all of these years was an extraordinary experience in and of itself. Being able to lead such a team in pushing the boundaries of fuel cell technology applications to develop, innovate, and adapt our fuel cell capabilities to the stringent aerospace requirements, and to achieve so many successes and breakthroughs with our limited resources shall define the 15 years I’ve had the privilege of experiencing.

Thomas, your career includes not just your work with 1xbet.com, but time also spent with fuel cell companies, Ballard and UTC.  What is one of your proudest technical accomplishments with 1xbet.com?

One of the most critical requirements for aerospace applications is weight.  With this as our focus, we have developed hybrid fuel cell / battery systems with very high specific energy (Wh/kg) for long endurance, and very high specific 1xbet.com (W/kg) for take-off, hovering, transients, etc. A hybridized 1xbet.com system can be highly optimized for a given duty cycle, and we are experts at doing this.

I am also proud to have not only pushed the envelope of aerospace fuel cell systems, but to have developed advanced unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms. We were the first in the world to ever fly a fuel cell powered multirotor in March 2015, designed and built by 1xbet.com.  It has been very exciting to advance two cutting edge technologies and watch their convergence. I believe it is just the beginning for fuel cells in the aerospace industry, with equal opportunity for autonomous technologies.

This one is for both of you: what motivates you to get out of bed in the morning and continue your work?

Michel:

Working in the 1xbet.com industry requires a very deeply rooted conviction in the technology and its immense benefit to society. My motivation to work has, and always will be, to contribute to the commercialization of this technology, and to witness the ripples it can have throughout many critical aspects of our modern society.

Thomas:

Each day, I look forward to working with my talented technical team.  We are problem solvers and innovators.  Every morning, we have a short scrum to discuss the challenges that we will face that day, and now that we are part of the Plug 1xbet.com family, we have an even bigger team to support us. I am very excited about our bright future,facing new challenges, and more importantly, overcoming them.

As you can see, the team at EnergyOr is both passionate and dedicated to the work they have done over the last 16 years. Plug 1xbet.com will only be better because they have joined our team.  We look forward to seeing what we will accomplish together!
