Remotely controlled electrical power generating system

A method for generating electrical power, comprising:

• coupling an AC main source to a load bus, wherein the load bus is coupled to a load;
• coupling a first fuel cell subsystem to the load bus, wherein the first fuel cell subsystem is coupled to a supply of hydrogen gas;
• coupling a second fuel cell subsystem to the load bus, wherein the second fuel cell subsystem is coupled to the supply of hydrogen gas;
• determining with a controller that controls both the AC main source, the first fuel cell subsystem, and the second fuel cell subsystem that electrical power generated by the AC main source is insufficient to power the load;
• and
• responsive to determining that electrical power generated by the AC main source is insufficient to power the load, activating, with the controller, the first fuel cell subsystem and the second fuel cell subsystem to produce electrical power from the supply of hydrogen gas sufficient to power the load.

A method for generating electrical power, comprising:

• coupling an AC main source to a load bus, wherein the load bus is coupled to a load;
• coupling a first fuel cell subsystem to the load bus, wherein the first fuel cell subsystem is coupled to a supply of hydrogen gas;
• coupling a second fuel cell subsystem, which is connected in parallel, to the load bus, wherein the second fuel cell subsystem is coupled to the supply of hydrogen gas;
• determining with a controller that controls both the AC main source, the first fuel cell subsystem, and the second fuel cell subsystem that electrical power generated by the AC main source is absent;
• responsive to determining that electrical power generated by the AC main source is absent, activating, with the controller, the first fuel cell subsystem and the second fuel cell subsystem to produce electrical power from the supply of hydrogen gas;
• storing electrical power generated by the first fuel cell subsystem and by the second fuel cell subsystem as DC power;
• and
• converting stored DC power to AC power for supply to the load bus and powering of the load.
