New µ-CHP network technologies for energy efficient and sustainable districts (FC-DISTRICT)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

The overall objective of the FC-DISTRICT project is to optimize and implement an innovative energy production and distribution concept for sustainable and energy efficient refurbished and/or new “energy autonomous” districts exploiting decentralized co-generation coupled with optimized building and district heat storage and distribution network. The concept is based on dynamic heat exchange betwee ...

DEGRADATION SIGNATURES IDENTIFICATION FOR STACK OPERATION DIAGNOSTICS (DESIGN)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Today, main expectation for SOFC stationary systems competitiveness is to exceed a durability of 40 000 h, an objective which is not today reached except for very specific designs. A better understanding and detection of the failure mechanisms and the internal condition of stacks is of major importance for the introduction of the SOFC technology. If, massive SOFC stack or auxiliary failure can be ...

Anode Sub-System Development & Optimisation for SOFC systems (ASSENT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"The high temperature fuel cell technologies have potential for high electrical efficiency, 45-60%, and total efficiency up to 95%. SOFC has the added benefit of offering commercial applications from 1 kW residential to several MW stationary units with high fuel flexibility. Whilst much effort is devoted to cell and stack issues, less attention has been paid to the components and sub-systems requi ...

Evaluating the Performance of Fuel Cells in European Energy Supply Grids (FC-EuroGrid)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

It has become apparent in the development of the Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) Multi Annual Implementation Plan (MAIP) and Annual Implementation Plans (API) that it is difficult to formulate precise targets and requirements for stationary fuel cell applications due to the complicated interaction of FC system operation with grid specifics and the differing goals of FC implementa ...
