Progress of SOC Development at Elcogen

Elcogen is one of the leading European manufacturers solid oxide cell (SOC) technology. products are unique combination best in class performance and low-cost product structure. The unit stack designed for low temperature operation enabling major cost reductions system level. Elcogen's operations located Nordic-Baltic technology cluster Finland Estonia. This article summarizes recent activities development trends Elcogen.Elcogen currently focused ramping up its production with increased customer needs. short-term goal to set-up a demonstration manufacturing plant cells stacks annual capacity 50 MW. To facilitate goals has signed EUR 12 million loan facility Investment Bank (EIB). first Baltic countries get support under InnovFin – EU-finance innovators programme, which financed from EU's Horizon 2020 research innovation programme. Specifically, financing falls InnovFin's Energy Demonstration Projects (EDP) facility.Elcogen continuously developing higher performance, longer lifetime, lower costs, quality expanded applications. As an example, been testing efficiency lifetime methane-based gas maximum exceeded 75 % efficiency. degradation rate 23 000 hours test 15 mOhm.cm2/1000h.
