WATT HOME™ solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) system installed at the Hope Gas Edward M. Smith National Career and Life Skills Development Center, in Clarksburg, WV.
A fuel cell manufacturer located in Westmoreland County, PA — WATT Fuel Cell — manufactures Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (“SOFC”) stacks and systems that operate on common, readily available fuels such as natural gas and propane. Instead of burning and combusting natural gas (or propane), those fuel sources are subjected to an electrochemical process that produces electricity. Hope Gas, a West Virginia-based natural gas utility, announced a plan in October of last year to roll out WATT Fuel Cells to over 5,000 of its customers (see Hope Gas Gets Ready to Roll Out WATT Fuel Cells to WV Customers). It all begins with the first customer. WATT announced yesterday that it has successfully placed its first commercial installation in Clarksville, WV.
