Beyond Combustion: How Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Transform Carbon Capture
The U.S. grid is straining under unprecedented demand from data centers, artificial intelligence, electrified transportation and industrial expansion—all while pressure mounts to deliver around-the-clock decarbonized power. Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer a promising pathway by producing low-cost, dependable power from natural gas while creating a concentrated CO₂ stream that makes carbon capture far less energy- and capital-intensive.
This session will unpack how SOFCs achieve these benefits, highlight recent technology breakthroughs and draw lessons from real-world deployments. Utilities, IPPs and large energy users will gain a clearer picture of how SOFCs can fit into decarbonization strategies while strengthening grid resilience.
