Timo Lehtinen, Matti Noponen
Abstract
Elcogen is a company providing solid oxide cell and stack solutions for fuel cell (SOFC) and electrolysis (SOEC) applications. Elcogen’s solutions are designed to operate at reduced operating temperatures but still providing high performance at affordable cost and low degradation level. Elcogen is currently expanding its manufacturing capabilities towards multi-MW annual production levels through a factory project. As a part of commercialization tasks, Elcogen is developing a demonstrator unit for steam electrolysis applications producing green hydrogen. This demonstrator unit is a part of an EU’s H2020 funded C2FUEL project. This presentation outlines the current progress of the high temperature electrolysis demonstrator development at Elcogen.
