Ceres Power Holdings has signed a contact with Shell to design a 10 megawatt (MW) pressurised solid oxide electrolyser (SOEC) module to produce green hydrogen at 36kWh/kg.
The aim is to develop a pressurised module design that can be scaled to ‘100s of megawatts’ and be integrated with industrial plants to produce sustainable future fuels.
The contract, which builds on data generated from the existing 1MW demonstration of Ceres’ technology at Shell’s R&D facility in Bangalore over the last two years, will produce hydrogen for use in applications such as synthetic fuels, ammonia and green steel. The programme will use key learnings to develop a ‘commercially competitive and scalable solution’.
Phil Caldwell, Chief Executive of Ceres, said its strategic collaboration with Shell continues to provide valuable insights, ensuring Ceres’ SOEC technology is well positioned to meet partners’ needs for the green hydrogen and synthetic fuels markets.
