Rolls-Royce Fuel Cell Systems Ltd (R-R plc), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rolls-Royce plc, is positioning to be a global leader in the next generation of power systems.
RRFCS initially plans to produce fuel cells of one, five and ten megawatts for stationary power generation systems. The systems will be based on its low-cost, patent-protected solid oxide fuel cell (“SOFC”) technology, combined with specialist turbomachinery, to produce a SOFC ‘hybrid’. The SOFC hybrid will be compact, highly efficient, cost competitive and generate negligible emissions. As the technology evolves, RRFCS plans to participate in broader power system applications, such as transport (automobile, marine and aero) and portable fuel cell initiatives.
RRFCS is a growing organisation currently numbering 30 people based within a standalone facility in Derby UK.
