Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Industry Developments:
In December 2021, Vertiv received funding from the Clean Hydrogen Partnership to develop low-carbon fuel cells for use in data centers, aiming to reduce carbon emissions. The EcoEdge PrimePower project serves as a proof-of-concept initiative to demonstrate the application of environmentally friendly fuel cells in data centers. By adopting natural gas solid oxide fuel cells, the project seeks to enhance efficiency and performance for backup and power systems.
In February 2021, TWI partnered with Ceres Power Ltd and OpTek Systems Ltd to develop a solid-state fuel cell under the “SOCRATES” project. The initiative focuses on designing a 5kW Solid Oxide Fuel Cell stack to meet the automotive industry’s demand for green power generation. The project is partially funded by the Advanced Propulsion Centre UK.
In October 2020, Mitsubishi Power entered into a contract to supply solid oxide fuel cells for a research project in Europe, KWK.NRW 4.0. The fuel cells were deployed at the Gas- und Wärme-Institut Essen e.V. in Essen, where the project aimed to study flexible operation and the use of hydrogen as a fuel gas under real-world conditions.
