Wed April 26, 2023 Efficient Hydrogen Production Wednesday April 26, 2023 Efficient Hydrogen Production Using FuelCell Energy’s High Temperature Electrolyzer FuelCell Energy is a global leader in the manufacture of stationary fuel cell platforms which provide decarbonized power. The company is also developing Solid Oxide Electrolyzer Cell (SOEC) technology to produce hydrogen by using electricity to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. SOEC has nearly 90 percent electrical efficiency, approximately 20% higher than other electrolysis technologies and this efficiency can be further increased if waste heat from industrial processes is available. When renewable electricity generated by wind or solar is used to power the SOEC no carbon dioxide is produced, in contrast to steam methane reforming processes. There is worldwide interest in electrolysis technologies for a wide range of uses including mobile, industrial, and energy storage applications. An overview of some of these applications and details of the SOEC under development at FuelCell Energy will be presented. Brian Borglum
