29 Jan Delta in Collaboratation to Deploy SOFC Systems on FPSOs

(Oilandgaspress) -] Delta Electronics, Inc. announced a partnership with MODEC (MODEC, Inc.) and fuel cell developer Eld Energy AS (“Eld energy”) to advance maritime energy transition. Under the agreement, Delta will supply Solid Oxide Stacks, Power Conditioning Systems (PCS), and converters for Eld Energy’s integrated Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) system, designed for deployment on a Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) application. The partners target a 120kW SOFC system pilot trial by 2027. This milestone marks the first application of SOFC technology on an FPSO, laying the foundation for hydrogen energy in the maritime power segment.

The signing ceremony took place at Delta’s Tainan Plant 2. Dr. Charles Tsai, General Manager of Delta’s Hydrogen Energy Business Division, said, “Delta is dedicated to providing innovative, energy-efficient solutions. In recent years, we have actively invested in hydrogen energy development to empower industries in their transition toward a low-carbon future. With this collaboration we hope to develop a comprehensive hydrogen solution—from stacks and fuel cells to power management systems—onto a newly built FPSO. By replacing conventional equipment with low-carbon alternatives, this project extends Delta’s hydrogen blueprint into maritime applications.”
