Ceramic Fuel Cells achieves industry milestone for electrical efficiency

29 September 2008

Ceramic Fuel Cells has achieved electrical efficiency of 50% in its proprietary NetGenPlus micro-CHP system, marking a first for the fuel cell industry.

CFC, which is developing high efficiency and low emission microgeneration products for homes, achieved similar levels of efficiency with its fuel cell stack in a test station environment in February this year. The company has now achieved the same result in a complete NetGenPlus micro-CHP system, comprising a fuel cell module integrated with all balance of plant components.

The NetGenPlus unit has been operating at CFC’s facilities in Melbourne, Australia in real-world conditions for approximately two months, using fuel supplied from the natural gas pipeline and exporting approximately 1kW of electricity to the local grid at 50% electrical efficiency.

CFC’s managing director, Brendan Dow, said: “So far as we are aware a system electrical efficiency of 50% is higher than any other micro-CHP product has achieved. High electrical efficiency is core to the value proposition for microgeneration products and a key driver of our strategy and product design.”
