Reducing air pollution in Turkey using solid oxide fuel cells

Obiettivo

As the infrastructure of Turkey develops, environmental pollution and energy generation must be addressed. Clean energy technology can reduce environmental emissions from energy generation as generating capacity expands. Fuel cells (FCs) are of particular interest in Turkey due to existing mass manufacturing expertise and the long-term prospects of a global fuel cell market estimated at $100s billions in 2020.

We seek to link the manufacturing expertise of Turkey with EU FC technical innovations to establish long term collaborations in FC manufacture. We will provide a technical ToK programme for SOFCs to encourage the future development and deployment of SOFCs in Turkey.

This course will be the first SOFC taught course in Turkey, by international experts with state-of-the art knowledge. Knowledge of FCs and specifically SOFCs will be transferred to Bursa to:
- highlight the environmental benefits of adopting clean generation techniques in Bursa;
- train local scientists in SOFC technologies;
- establish a sustainable technical hub of SOFC research knowledge in Turkey at TUBITAK;
- create a registry of Turkish business with FC manufacturing capabilities open to EU collaboration; and
- establish long-term SOFC technical collaboration between TUBITAK (the national research organisation) and the UK and EU FC industry (lead by UK SOFC technology SME, Adelan).

Both Partners are led by Professors from Uludag and Birmingham Universities and the project deliverables will feed into University programmes using short ToK visits. Technical ToK between TUBITAK and Adelan (Years 1 and 2) will build long-term strategic partnerships for FC cell manufacturing between Birmingham and Bursa (Year Two) are described. A `Bursa FC Cluster¿, led by 6-8 TUBITAK trainees, will become a technical resource to support national and international FC initiatives. This improved and resubmitted application was graded B in 2004.
