Pressurized Solid Oxide Fuel Cells for Hybrid Power Plants

摘要

Hybrid power plants consisting of a micro gas turbine (MGT) coupled with solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) convert chemically bound energy into electrical energy. They can be operated at very high electrical efficiencies within a large range of installed power. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) has been involved in research activities concerning the hybrid power plant since 2006 with the aim to build and operate a pilot power plant.
