This portal page aggregates news, information, companies, products, services
and business opportunities relevant to stationary fuel cell power applications.
There are a number of
companies developing
fuel cells for stationary applications worldwide and there are a number
of
opportunities to become part of the supply chain for these systems including:
Advantages of Fuel Cells for Stationary Applications
- Operating temperatures enable combined heat (or cooling) and
power cogeneration - the heat is of a useful temperature and is
produced as a by-product (fuel cells operate between 50 - 900°C)
- Distributed generation - energy is generated at the point
of use yielding greater overall efficiency and lower emissions than
traditional grid infrastructure
- Fuel diversity - existing pipeline fuels can be used as well
as biogas and
waste streams, including:
- Natural Gas
- Biogas
- Syngas
- Hydrogen
- Fuel cells offer the potential for considerable long term cost
savings (high CAPEX, low COPEX)
- Very low emissions, vibrations and noise
- Zero or very low CO2, NOx, SOx and particulates
- High efficiency - consistent across partial and full loads
- Renewable Energy Storage - combining fuel cells, electrolysers
and hydrogen storage can produce a completely renewable energy system
- Location diversity - in backup power applications fuel cells
can reduce the footprint when compared to batteries (for a similar autonomy)
and when considering larger stationary installations, fuel cells can
be installed almost anywhere (built up urban environments)
