Objective OxiGEN aims at developing an innovative SOFC technical platform, including an all-ceramic stack design and a modular hotbox, for small stationary applications. Thanks to its higher durability and simpler design, this novel stack can fulfill the customers’ needs for long lifetime, high efficiency and low cost, in micro-CHP and other segments. A broad pan-European consortium of seven major players (ICI Caldaie, R&D centers Fraunhofer-IKTS, EIFER, CEA Liten, SINTEF, utility ENGIE, global ceramist and project coordinator Saint-Gobain) will partner to integrate the all-ceramic stack into an original hot box solution. Functional specifications will be set by a qualified Advisory Panel, gathering European system integrators and gas utilities in addition to the JRC and other consortium members. The solution’s design will be modular and will address the specifications and standards suggested by the Advisory Panel, in order to provide a technical platform serving several market segments while fostering open competition between industry players. This new platform is of European ownership and leverages a European supply chain, thus supporting the emergence of a European fuel cell industry fully independent from Asian fuel cell technology. The projects’ technical objectives address all the call challenges:• Define, with input from the Advisory Panel, the most suitable hotbox functional specifications for residential and commercial segments• Develop a higher power stack to reach the call’s technical targets• Develop a modular hot box concept and build a 1kWe prototype (in practice, 500We to 1500We depending on preferred micro-CHP power specification)• Assess the performance of the prototype in system-like conditions• Study the cost-of-ownership of the solution• Propose material-based solutions for future long-term improvements• Ensure the manufacturability and compatibility of the new hotbox with the EU supply chain • Disseminate results and build the exploitation plan Fields of science engineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringenergy and fuelsfuel cells Programme(s) H2020-EU.3.3. - SOCIETAL CHALLENGES - Secure, clean and efficient energy Main Programme H2020-EU.3.3.8.1. - Increase the electrical efficiency and the durability of the different fuel cells used for power production to levels which can compete with conventional technologies, while reducing costs Topic(s) FCH-02-9-2017 - Development of next-generation SOFC stack for small stationary applications Call for proposal H2020-JTI-FCH-2017-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme FCH2-RIA - Research and Innovation action Coordinator SOCIETE EUROPEENNE DES PRODUITS REFRACTAIRES Net EU contribution € 883 200,00 Address 18 avenue d'alsace les miroirs 92400 Courbevoie France See on map Region Ile-de-France Ile-de-France Hauts-de-Seine Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Participation in EU R&I programmes Opens in new window HORIZON collaboration network Opens in new window Other funding € 0,00 Participants (9) Sort alphabetically Sort by Net EU contribution Expand all Collapse all Third-party Legal entity other than a subcontractor which is affiliated or legally linked to a participant.
