How do Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOECs) fit into this picture?
SOECs are ideal for these applications due to their high efficiency in producing green hydrogen and syngas (a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide) directly from CO2 and water. They also excel in high-temperature environments, making them a perfect match for integrating with nuclear power and industrial waste heat recovery systems.
At H2Electro, our fully ceramic SOECs take these benefits to the next level. Our cells are designed for superior efficiency, durability, and impurity tolerance, making them the best choice for use cases like:
- Co-electrolysis to produce syngas directly from industrial flue gases.
- High-temperature steam electrolysis for more efficient hydrogen production using waste heat.
- E-fuel production, providing sustainable synthetic fuels for sectors like transportation and aviation.
