SolydEra G8 stack currently being tested using Dynelectro\u2019s proprietary operation which uses a rapidly reversing pulse to thermally balance the cells thereby substantially reducing thermomechanical stress. Image provided by SolydEra<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nResults of AC:DC operation<\/h3>\n To provide real-world insights, we present the results of an ongoing year-long test involving a G8 stack provided by SolydEra with a nominal power of 4.5 kW in electrolysis mode. SolydEra is a key world player in the market of solid oxide cells, stacks, and solutions, with the largest annual production capacity in Europe. Its solid oxide technology has a proven track record and delivers best-in-class performance and durability in both fuel cell and electrolysis mode.<\/p>\n
SolydEra has research & development and industrial manufacturing facilities in Italy, Switzerland, and Australia. Its headquarters is in Trentino Alto Adige, Italy. Dynelectro has engineering, research & development and production testing facilities in Denmark.<\/p>\nPerformance is shown as the conductance, where 100% equals 1.7 S\/cm2 or 0.6 Ohm cm2. After the initialisation period (ca. 0-750 hours), the degradation corresponds to <0.3% per 1000 hours. Note that the high degradation observed in the initialisation period is under further investigation<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhat\u2019s intriguing is that we\u2019ve observed a reduction in the degradation rate of the stack during this test. This reduction is believed to be linked to the desorption of impurities that would otherwise absorb and agglomerate on the active three-phase boundaries of the electrodes.<\/p>\n
Moreover, we delve into the potential of AC:DC operation to enable dynamic operation in large SOE systems, addressing the unique challenges faced by power-to-X developers. This innovation holds the key to furthering the development and commercialisation of PtX technology, making it an even more valuable asset in our quest for a sustainable and greener future.<\/p>\n
Join us on this journey as we simplify the path to a greener future with innovative energy solutions. Together, we can pave the way for a cleaner and more sustainable world, overcoming the challenges faced by power-to-X developers as we work towards a brighter tomorrow.<\/p>\n
