Who We Are

Energy Replay Ltd is a local company formed by Paul Young, who has an honours degree in Earth Sciences and Steve Dean who has a background in mechanical engineering.

Steve has been in Gibraltar for 23 years, he worked with the Sheppard-Cappuros for many years, latterly in charge of the boatyard engineering workshop. Then Steve moved on to ElectroMed, which was formed in Gibraltar some 20 years ago and gained an excellent reputation for the sales and service of marine electronics throughout the Western Mediterranean specialising in engineering and communications systems for shipping and super yachts. Paul helped form a cellular radio company which offered consultancy and had many cellular operations in Africa. The company was sold to Kuwait Telecom in 2005. He now has more time to spend in Gibraltar, and is concentrating on developing new technologies both here and abroad. Paul has interests in two other companies developing fuel cells for the mobile phone market.


 

Alternative Fuel Systems was formed in late 1998, when interest in alternative fuels, especially LPG as a road fuel, was becoming more widespread in the UK. They are now also developing Hydrogen Fuel Cells, another core area of interest within the alternative fuel industry, which AFS has been actively involved with since its formation. In June 1999 they were added to the UK Energy Saving Trust Power-shift Register.

 

Past Achievements
In 2001 AFS was awarded a prestigious DTI Smart award for the design and construction of a 5KW Alkaline Fuel Cell system. Other fully operational units have been demonstrated at numerous events and exhibitions, such as:

  • Black Country Power, Birmingham

  • Hanover Fuel Cell Fair, Germany

  • Grove Symposium, London

  • The Senate, Washington DC

  • US Navy HQ, Annapolis

The development team that worked on these technologies including Ron Hodkinson, Rob Priest and Steve Dean represent the finest minds with the greatest hands of knowledge on running clean energy systems. Ron and Rob would be happy to provide a detailed presentation. Go to the fuel cell control site for more information on fuel cells.

This same group in the UK have been working on LPG conversions for cars. Having a LPG conversion vehicle is very easy to run, simple to refill, saves money and saves the environment.
