Description

This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) project aims to leverage the recent advancement of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) to enable a compact and portable fuel cell system with a system-level volumetric power density of 3000W/L, which can serve as the lightweight power source for US Army. Storagenergy Technologies, Inc. (Storagenergy) proposes a compact SOFC system for portable power source by integrating highly active cathode, coking-tolerant fuel reforming catalyst, novel cell/stack structure, and compact system design. Our effort in Phase-I focuses on demonstrating and validating these materials and cell/stack engineering at a stack level and then designing a compact, lightweight 1-3kW SOFC system having flexible fuel options.
