概要:
当社は,米国シーメンスウエスチングハウス社からSOFCの販売権を取得した。燃料電池は化学エネルギーを直接電気エネルギーに変換する高効率で低公害の発電システムである。中でもSOFCは最も発電効率が高い燃料電池として知られている。当社は,シーメンスウエスチングハウス社とともにNKK/SWPC-SOFCの開発に尽力していく。
Abstract:
NKK has entered into a distributor/packager agreement with SWPC (Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation) for stationary fuel cell applications utilizing solid oxide fuel cell technology. This agreement enables NKK to become an authorized distributor/packager of SOFC systems serving the Japanese and the Asia markets. Fuel cell technology enables direct energy conversion from chemical energy of fuel to electric energy. The fuel cell can generate electricity at higher efficiency and lower emissions, than conventional internal combustion systems. SOFC is recognized as the most efficient fuel cell among various fuel cells. NKK will make every effort to commercialize NKK/SWPC-SOFC systems.
