FuelCell Energy, established in 1969, is a clean energy technology pioneer with over 530 patents. Their fuel cells, operational for more than 20 years, can run on various fuels including natural gas, hydrogen, and biofuel, serving applications from grid support to distributed baseload power for data centers and industrial operations.

FuelCell Energy (FCEL) has published its 2024 Annual and Sustainability Reports, highlighting significant business achievements and environmental progress. The company added approximately $250 million to its revenue backlog in 2024 through utility-scale projects and advancement of clean energy technology, including a carbon capture platform with ExxonMobil.

The company expanded its service business through long-term agreements with Gyoenggi Green Energy Co., and Sacramento Area Sewer District. Following a global restructuring in late 2024, FCEL remains focused on growth and operational streamlining. CEO Jason Few emphasized the company's fuel-flexible technology and proven commercial platforms, particularly highlighting their carbonate platform's potential in natural gas applications.

The 2024 Sustainability Report showcases key achievements including establishing an annual GHG emissions inventory, completing a product-level life cycle assessment, conducting a climate risk assessment, implementing a sustainability governance model, and earning ISS ESG Prime status.

FuelCell Energy (FCEL) has begun testing its solid oxide electrolysis cell (SOEC) system at Idaho National Laboratory (INL), marking the largest and first fully integrated electrolyzer tested at the facility. The project, partially funded by a 2020 DOE award, aims to study hydrogen production's role in diversifying nuclear plants' profitability.

The system will produce 150 kilograms of hydrogen daily using 250 kilowatts of nuclear-generated electricity, demonstrating 100% efficiency when utilizing nuclear plant waste heat. This efficiency could reduce clean hydrogen production costs by up to 30%. The electrolyzer's modular design, shipped on two flatbed trucks, offers easy scaling and siting capabilities.

The testing will evaluate real-world applications, including thermal energy usage from nuclear reactors, grid dynamics, and reactor control simulation. The system will also be showcased to global energy industry visitors at INL, with produced hydrogen supporting ongoing research in e-chemical synthesis, turbine co-firing, and vehicle refueling.

FuelCell Energy (FCEL) has secured a contract to construct a 7.4 MW fuel cell power plant in Hartford, Connecticut. The project will provide Class 1 renewable baseload power to the local grid under a 20-year power purchase agreement with Eversource and United Illuminating, expected to generate over $160 million in future revenue for the company's generation backlog.

The Hartford project aims to strengthen the public electricity grid in a important commercial and industrial area. The company emphasizes that fuel cells are particularly suitable for urban environments, offering space-efficient, quiet, and emission-free distributed energy. The project will utilize low-emission natural gas without combustion, effectively eliminating SOx, NOx, and particulate matter emissions.

The announcement highlights FuelCell Energy's existing projects, including a 15 MW plant in Bridgeport (since 2012), a 14 MW plant in Derby (since 2023), and a 58.8 MW facility in South Korea's Hwaseong Baran Industrial Complex.
