Now you can generate sustainable, renewable energy on your own SynCells nanogrid whenever and wherever you need it — whether in cities or the most remote areas. By taking control of your own smart energy infrastructure and associated costs, you’ll eliminate fixed monthly utility fees as well as the headaches of dealing with multiple utility companies.
The SmartCell-FC (Fuel Cell) creates electricity from a feedstock gas through the use of a fuel cell. SynCells’ preferred fuel cell is the latest-generation, low-temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), which can use a range of feedstocks ranging from natural gas to hydrogen and renewable fuels such as green hydrogen and ammonia. Our SOFCs are up to 65% efficient for electricity generation, with a 25% thermal energy byproduct, for a combined total efficiency of approximately 90%. Compared to the grid average of 35%, it’s possible to realize significant (2.5x) energy and carbon footprint savings immediately using readily available fuels — and to reduce your lifecycle carbon footprint to near zero using green fuels.
SOFCs can be used across a variety of energy applications, from stationary to mobile; however, PEM fuel cells may also be leveraged where pure hydrogen sources may exist and no thermal energy is desired. With SynCells’ modular SmartCell approach, one host platform can support a variety of functions and provide a roadmap for evolving technologies and requirements.
SynCells’ range of SmartCells makes a near-zero or NetZero energy profile possible and allows you to comply with regulatory or ESG criteria without the increased capital investment. Even better, you can realize this solution without any capital investment through our energy cloud (energy as a service), which can include green fuels through our partners.
