Wärtsilä to deliver world's first SOFC fuel cell power plant using landfill gas

21 February 2008 - Wärtsilä will deliver a unique fuel cell unit producing electric and heating power to the Vaasa Housing Fair site in Western Finland.

The fuel cell power plant, which is based on planar solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology, is the first of its kind in the world. The plant is fuelled by biogas or methane originating from a nearby landfill.

At the first stage, it will produce an electric output of approximately 20 kW and a thermal output of 14 to 17 kW.

The Vaasa Housing Fair to be held between 11 July and 10 August 2008 is a pioneer in the implementation of energy production processes for a restricted area.
