Taiwan's first 50 KW fuel cell power station, becoming Taiwan's largest fuel cell power generation system, started into commercial operation.
YC Synergy and a well-known domestic polysilicon maker of semiconductor industry jointly planed a fuel cell power station of more than 2MW by adopting Rick-I series compact four cell modules of 15kW as the first phase. Rick-I series is a fuel cell with co-generation design independently developed by YC Synergy, and could provide power and preheating energy, reduce dependence on the grid, and save fuel costs for traditional coal or natural gas boilers.
The life expectancy will exceed 15,000 hours, and the expected total cost would approximate to the average industrial electricity price. This case also shows that the technology is matured enough to be used in the coastal area with harsh and high dust environment ,and meets the strict regulation of chemical plant, providing efficient and stable power.
