Type
Solution maturity
Mass promotion / Mass production
Key innovations
Unlike other types of fuel cells, Bloom's SOFC does not require precious metals, corrosive acids or molten materials.
Potential economic benefits
Distributed generation avoids the vulnerability of traditional transmission and distribution lines, reducing transmission losses and grid transmission requirements
Potential climate benefits
Avoid emitting harmful standard air pollutants, including nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide; they reduce the greenhouse gas emission grid compared to fuel cells.
