Sunfire’s key technology is the Solid Oxide Power Core – a stack of high-temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs).
SOFCs convert chemical energy from a gaseous fuel into electricity and heat. Unlike conventional fuel cells, Sunfire fuel cells can also be operated with different hydrocarbons, such as natural gas, bio gas, liquid petroleum gas (LPG) and several liquid hydrocarbon fuels (methanol, ethanol, diesel).
Sunfire product manager Karl Hauptmeier gave this illuminating overview of the technology’s progress and promise in this attractive deck.
