Germany – Lifetime test at FZJ
• Lifetimes over 10 years reached (still running with 85 000 hworking time) for stack in laboratory environment (FZ Jülich).
• 10 years “old technology” [even longer lifetime with technology of today expected]
• No “new” similar long-time tests being started at FZJ

Summary of recent SOFC developments• Lifetimes over 10 years reached for stack in laboratory
environment (FZ Jülich).• The electrical efficiency is over 60% for a 1.5 kW SOFC CHP
system that is available for purchase (SolidPower)• A 200 kW SOFC system under development by SOFCMAN in
China reached 72.5 % (LHV) electrical efficiency. • The number of companies developing fuel cell systems based on
multiple technologies is increasing. • In public funded programs (e.g., Callux in Germany and the ENE-
FARM in Japan) multiple fuel cell technologies are being installed. • Large-scale SOFC installations, provided by Bloom Energy in the
USA, have achieved significant deployment in USA.

Annex 37 (FC modeling)The modeling annex aims at developing, maintaining, and applying a suite(s) of open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software for application to FCs, electrolyzers and other electrochemical applications (hydrogen storage, batteries, etc.) including validation and verification by comparison with other CFD codes, physical experiments and development of benchmark problems.
Challenges: No joint research funding, i.e., all participants have different aims and priorities, but annex 37 is very good for networking, research discussions, state-of-the-art information exchange.

Attended Conferences 2016-2017
• ASME IMECE November 2017– CFD modeling PEMFC mostly on flow distribution and innovative
channel design on BPP
• SOFC-XV (ECS), USA, July 2017– SOFC integrated in data centers in each rack, presentation from
Microsoft, possible with 1000 * 10 kW systems in each data center.
• PRIME (ECS), USA, October 2016– Japan is significantly aiming to show the world its hydrogen and fuel
cell status during the Olympic Games in 2020
– Many presentations from US military
– Natural-gas is then fed directly into each rack.
