Initiative Brennstoffenzelle newsletter just received (part translation )Please read it CFU pipped to second place by Baxi-Innotech, of note Baxi claims 98% efficiency, (clearly marketing in action!) BlueGen came up with the same efficiency as Baxi in the Interim Technical Report on "the fuel cell initiative".
http://www.ibz-info.de/home/news "Ceramic Fuel Cells Ceramic Fuel Cells is a leading deutschaustralischer Developer and manufacturer of micro power plants based oxide fuel cells to power of residential buildings and small businesses. The Company was founded in 1992 as a spin-off of Australian government research institute CSIRO and currently employs around 130 people, about 30 of them in Germany and the Netherlands. In Heinberg at Aachen, the company has The first series production fuel cell stack built in Germany. The production has an annual capacity of 10,000 stacks, So fuel cell stacks. It developed Ceramic Fuel Cells Technology in Australia and decided because of the Engineering and manufacturing know-how for Germany as a production location. The highly efficient micro-combined heat and power couplers treatment plants of the range BlueGen achieve a globally unique high electrical efficiency of up to 60 Percent, with an overall efficiency of up to 85 percent. Due to the high electric Efficiency and thus lower
Thermal power plants which provide BlueGen Possibility of a reliable year-round, low-carbon and decentralized energy production. BlueGen plants have the optimum Operating point an electric power of 1.5 kW and a thermal output of 0.6 kW epithelium. With the technology can diesere of CO2 emissions compared to conventional electricity and heat generation decrease significantly. BlueGen has in recent years numerous tests its viability in practice Evidence provided. Overall, the technology over 500,000 hours of customers in nine countries tested. Since early 2012, The first small batch of 1,000 units over Sales Partners in Germany and the Netherlands markets. In addition to the BlueGen systems developed ceramic Fuel Cells together with leading application partners to in Germany (EWE energy), France (GDF Suez) and the UK (E.ON UK) so-called fuel cell heating appliances. BlueGen to the difference of these facilities: In the housing is a condensing boiler for the Provision of additional space heating systems and a master control unit. While BlueGen Side is a solution, are partners with the developed devices intended for the heating exchange market. www.cfcl.com.au www.bluegen.info"
