Ceres Power and Shell Collaboration for Sustainable Future Fuels
Key Ideas
  • Ceres Power Holdings secures a contract for the second phase of collaboration with Shell in designing a solid-oxide electrolyser module for industrial applications.
  • The focus is on developing a pressurized module design scalable to hundreds of megawatts for producing sustainable future fuels like green hydrogen and synthetic fuels.
  • The collaboration aims to achieve significant efficiency gains, with the target of module level efficiency aligning with EU SOE 2030 technology targets.
Ceres Power Holdings, a UK-based clean energy technology developer, has announced a further contract with Shell to work on the design of a solid-oxide electrolyser module for large-scale industrial applications such as synthetic fuels, ammonia, and green steel. The project builds on the success of their existing collaboration, which led to the deployment of a one-megawatt SOEC system at Shell’s R&D facility in Bangalore, India. The pressurized module design aims for scalability to produce sustainable future fuels in industrial plants. Ceres' CEO, Phil Caldwell, expressed confidence in the strategic collaboration with Shell and highlighted the efficiency gains of SOEC technology. The project targets high efficiency, performance, and integration with other processes, with a focus on achieving a module level efficiency of less than 36kWh/kg of hydrogen, aligning with EU technology targets for 2030. This collaboration demonstrates a positive approach towards advancing clean energy solutions and sustainable fuel production.
