  3. Experts around the world

  4. The energy revolution

  5. BlueGEN – themostefficientelectricitygenerator Power Gas Heat • Distributed power production @ 60% efficiency • Waste heat for hot water production 200 ltr/day

  6. Centralised Generation…

  7. Distributed Generation…

  8. BlueGEN addresses the key challenges of this transition Highest electricalefficiency (comparable to modern CCGT-plants) Flexible application, local balancing of fluctuating renewable power sources Restructuring of fossil power plant portfolio Expansion of Renewables • „Virtual Power Plants“ • Renewable throughuse of bio-methaneor synthetic gas • Distributed operationreduces losses andstabilisesgrids Combined heat and power: significantly higher efficiencies Increase in buildingefficiency Gridstabilization • BlueGEN can perform a fundamental role in the transformation of the energy industry, complementary with renewable energy sources

  10. Technical specifications

  11. Solid oxidefuelcells - SOFC • Low cost ceramicpowders • Easy to produce using existing ceramic processing technologies • Workingtemperaturesca. 750° • High fuelutilisationca. 85% • Gross electricalefficiencyca. 68%

  12. Functioning principle 4. The electrons (e-) travelthrough an externalcircuit, generatingelectricity. 1.The fuel cell is charged on the cathode side with oxygen from the air.  2.Natural gas is broken down in an internal steam reforming process into hydrogen and other constituent parts. Hydrogen is fed into the cell on the anode side. 3. Thanks to the special material properties of the fuel cells, the oxygen penetrates the electrolyte’s membrane and interacts with the hydrogen on the other side, where H20 is generated.

  13. Key components Air intake/Exhaust Fuel Cell Module Integrated heat exchanger Power Management System Desulphurisation Air Blower Water treatment
