United Natural Foods, Inc. UNFI today announced that the hydrogen fuel cell technology project at its Sarasota, FL distribution center has been successfully completed and is fully operational. Designed to improve efficiency, productivity and reliability, 65 GenDrive™ fuel cell powered lift trucks have been mobilized at the Sarasota distribution facility.
The conversion of UNFI's Sarasota lift truck fleet to hydrogen fuel cells is expected to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 132 metric tons annually, an amount equivalent to the annual emissions of 35 automobiles, and is expected to create annual energy savings of approximately 640,000 kilowatt hours. The project was previously announced on March 12, 2010.
