Fuel Cell - SOFC
(5, 10, 100 kW)

Acumentrics was founded in 1994 as a manufacturer of custom power products and has become an industry leader in ruggedized AC and DC Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) for military and industrial applications. The company’s development efforts have also expanded to include other power conversion and power protection products, including flywheel-based systems for critical power need markets.

The company is presently entering new markets with a breakthrough line of clean, quiet distributed power generation and power quality systems based on Acumentrics’ proprietary solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology. These fuel cells offer significant advantages over traditional engine- and turbine-powered generators. There is no compression/combustion, minimal ongoing maintenance, and negligible levels of pollutants. The company’s patented small-tube solid oxide fuel cell design offers efficiency and operational advantages over competing fuel cell and power solutions for commercial, industrial, residential and communications users.

Corporate administrative, research, development and engineering headquarters is in Westwood, Massachusetts. Acumentrics has manufacturing facilities in Westwood, Massachusetts and Windsor, Connecticut. The company serves its customers directly and through distributors and resellers.

For smaller-scale commercial and industrial back-up applications, the Acumentrics UPS-SOFC-2000 provides up to two kilowatts of premium on-site extended run uninterrupted power.

For micro-scale distributed power, the Acumentrics CP-SOFC-5000 and CP-SOFC-10000 power systems provide up to 5 kilowatts or 10 kilowatts of quiet, environmentally clean electricity for a diverse range of enterprises including small office buildings, farms and ranches, smaller-scale public works, data systems and remote facilities.

To meet larger on-site stationary power needs, the Acumentrics CP-SOFC-100K power plant supplies 100 kilowatts of high-efficiency electricity and high-grade heat for applications in many kinds of manufacturing, processing, public works and biomass and alternative fuel production applications.
