The Department of Energy, Fuel Efficiency Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) Program is offering a grant for the preliminary design and techno-economic analysis of MWe-Class SOFC systems. This grant aims to enable efficient electricity generation from natural gas-fueled DG systems, coal-fueled systems, and utility-scale systems with CCS. The program aligns with the Clean Coal and Carbon Management Research Program goals by addressing technical and economic barriers to commercial viability and promoting the development and deployment of SOFC power systems.

Description: | The mission of the DOE FE Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) program is to enable the efficient generation of low-cost electricity for (a) 2nd Generation natural gas-fueled SOFC DG systems and modular, coal-fueled systems and (b) Transformational coal or natural gas-fueled utility-scale systems with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). The program supports the overarching goals of the Clean Coal and Carbon Management Research Program (CCCMRP) through the collaboration between the R&D that addresses the technical and economic barriers to commercial viability and the development and deployment of SOFC power systems that validate those solutions. |
