Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation and RWE have announced that the world’s longest operating high temperature fuel cell power system, the 100 kW solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) co-generation system, ...

Why do the most efficient fuel cells have to operate at such high temperatures? This limitation has long hampered the development of clean electricity sources, limiting their large-scale adoption ...

Solid oxide fuel cells convert chemical fuels into electrical power. For more than a century, scientists have been working on techniques that provide better results and lower costs associated with ...

DTU researchers say a 3D printed ceramic gyroid fuel cell delivers a fivefold jump in power-to-weight. The work was done by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU Energy) and focuses on Solid Oxide ...

A collaborative research team has developed a proton conductor for fuel cells based on polystyrene phosphonic acids that maintain high protonic conductivity up to 200 C without water. A collaborative ...
