Ammonia-fuelled alkaline fuel cells for remote power applications (ALKAMMONIA)
In project ALKAMMONIA a proof-of-concept system designed to provide power in remote applications will be developed and tested. The project will integrate three innovative and proven technologies: a highly efficient and low-cost alkaline fuel cell system, a highly efficient and catalytically heated ammonia processing system and a novel solid state ammonia storage system.
Demonstration of 500 kWe alkaline fuel cell system with heat capture (POWER UP)
In project POWER-UP, a 500 kWe alkaline fuel cell (AFC) system will be demonstrated at Air Products (AIRP) industrial gas plant at Stade (in Lower Saxony, in northern Germany). This ambitious project will be the world’s first demonstration of an alkaline fuel cell system on a large scale. In order to achieve the goal of demonstrating a 500 kWe alkaline fuel cell system in a real industrial setting.

Überblick: Energie und Klima
Die Energieforschung am PSI konzentriert sich auf Prozesse, die in nachhaltigen und sicheren Technologien für eine möglichst CO2-freie Energieversorgung eingesetzt werden können. Wichtige Schwerpunkte sind erneuerbare Energien und deren Integration in das Schweizer Energiesystem. Das PSI leitet das Kompetenzzentrum für Wärme- und Stromspeicherung (SCCER Heat and Electricity Storage) sowie das Kompetenzzentrum für Bioenergie (SCCER BIOSWEET).
