Introduction to St Andrews Fuel Cells
St Andrews Fuel Cells Limited was spun out from the University of St Andrews in 2005 having been created to exploit an innovative new solid oxide fuel cell design, called ‘SOFCRoll’. The business is focused on making SOFCRoll a commercially viable technology for low kilowatt, transportable fuel cell applications, combined heat and power systems and other stationary power systems.The company's fuel cell design is a hybrid of generic planar and tubular fuel cell topologies, resulting in low mass and volume. The production process reduces the number of high temperature steps required, thereby significantly reducing cost.
