The first fuel cell system created in Hallstrom

Use in the basement of the Engelhardt-Palais stands next to an ordinary gas heating, a white box the size of a washing machine. It is a micro power plant to generate electricity with an efficiency of 60 percent, do not reach even the large power plants.

Use in the basement of the Engelhardt-Palais stands next to an ordinary gas heating, a white box the size of a washing machine. It is a micro power plant to generate electricity with an efficiency of 60 percent, do not reach even the large power plants. Stadtwerke Managing Director Gebhard Gentner assured that it is the first fuel cell installation in Hall for power generation. It produces throughout the year, the same amount of electricity and heat. The installation of the brand "BlueGen" thus serves to secure the basic needs in a building.

Benefit alone, the cost of maintenance of 600 euros per year and the purchase price of 25,000 euros make such a system at the moment for private home owners unattractive. In addition, the heart of the system must be replaced after three to six years. It is a pilot project to gain experience, so says Stadtwerke CEO Gentner. The charm of the art consists in high efficiency. The results from the fact that there are no rotating parts in power generation. The chemical energy is converted directly into electrical energy. Therefore, the fuel cell is resources. If you add electricity and hot water efficiency together, 85 percent of the energy that is put into it, even used. The plant in the Gelbinger alley generated with 13,000 kWh of electricity the annual requirement of three single-family homes and 5,200 kWh of hot water requires less energy than a smaller budget. Marcus Baumermann by the manufacturer of the system - Ceramic Fuels Cells - hoped that the technology is only half as expensive in two years and then be able to compete with conventional power plants.
