DFC power plants electrochemically convert a fuel source into electricity
and heat in a highly efficient process that emits virtually no pollutants
due to the absence of combustion. DFC power plants are fuel flexible,
capable of operating on natural gas or renewable biogas.
Efficiency of up to 90 percent can be achieved when the DFC plant is
configured for combined heat and power (CHP). High efficiency reduces fuel
costs and carbon emissions, and producing both electricity and heat from the
same unit of fuel can reduce the use of combustion based boilers used for
heating, further reducing costs and pollutants.
