3 of the 15 finalists in the 2010 / 2011 Dupont Innovation Awards had used Bayly's expertise in design and commercialisation of their technologies.

We were caught unawares a couple of months ago working with a client down from Cairns on a cold Melbourne Saturday afternoon in Bayswater when they mentioned that they had obviously made the correct choice when deciding to work with us on the development of their product.

Not that it’s a surprise that people are generally glad that they choose to work with us, but we were curious as to the context of the comment.  As well as working on some fine tuning of the design, they were also in Melbourne as one of fifteen finalists in the prestigious Dupont Innovation Awards and had attended the ceremony the previous night.  They were pleased to find that our company was mentioned more than once on the night.  No more encouragement needed. I decided that I better find out how we were associated with the awards.

WOW.  Three of the fifteen finalists had worked with Bayly during the development and commercialisation of their products and technology.

BlueGen™ electricity generator, Ceramic fuel Cells

BlueGen™ is an Australian designed mini power station for homes and small commercial buildings. About the size of a dishwasher, BlueGen™ uses ceramic fuel cells to convert natural gas into electricity and heat for hot water. BlueGen™ has achieved the world’s highest electrical efficiency in small scale electricity generation, delivering very large carbon savings and lower energy costs.

Bayly assisted Ceramic Fuel Cells over a number of months in the definition and documentation of their proprietary ceramic fuel cell production systems as they established their greenfield manufacturing facility in Heinsberg, Germany in late 2009.  The BlueGen™ units are assembled in Australia and Germany and have been sold in Europe, Australia, USA and Japan.
