Investigation of introduciton form of large scale fuel cells. Part 1; Ogata nenryo denchi donyu keitai chosa. 1

Abstract

Investigations are conducted on a large scale phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC) power generation system for dispersed use of which immediate introduction is anticipated for the electric utility industry. The studies are made on the development trend, possible capacity to be introduced and optimum introduction/operation form. The operational temperature of PAFC is 200 centigrade. Even in small scale PAFC, power generation efficiency is high. The orerall efficiency can be raised to 70 - 80% by the use of exhaust heat. It has good load responsibility and small environmental load. It is predicated that cost of a 5MW commercial PAFC plant will be 200,000 - 250,000 yen/kW for about 2000. The possible average introduction capacity will be 1872MW/year for the coming 20 years, which indicates a considerably large marketability. As the site for installation, considered are urban energy centers, substations, isolated islands, etc. In comparison between gas turbines and PAFC to be installed in the urban energy center, PAFC is more advantageous than gas turbines in terms of energy saving and economy if the cost of PAFC is reduced down to 250,000 yen/kW. 11 refs., 75 figs., 78 tabs.
