Generating power in extreme and remote locations has unique challenges and takes careful consideration. These areas rarely are connected to a reliable grid and many traditional means of power generation can’t perform efficiently under extreme conditions and weather. But, those living and working in these locations still expect their power to be stable without the […]
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are over a century old but have been seeing rapid innovations and growing use cases over the past several decades. These fuel cells have been used in transportation, industrial equipment, cooling, providing power, and various other applications where direct grid power is unavailable. At SPS, our unique SOFC technology is […]
Under DOE project DE-FE0031674 SPS has demonstrated improved cell performance while significantly reducing operating temperature.
Alliance OH, (23 Feb 2021) – Special Power Sources (SPS) selected for Phase I funding through Department of Energy (DoE) via Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program.
