Online workshop “Unlocking the Potential of SOC Technologies for a Decarbonized Future”, May 30th, 2025, 10:00 a.m.
The AMPS project is proud to invite you to the online workshop “Unlocking the Potential of SOC Technologies for a Decarbonized Future”, which will be held on May 30th, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., dedicated to exploring the full potential of Solid Oxide Cell (SOC) technologies in the context of the energy transition.
SOC technology is among the most promising innovations currently under development. It can operate both as a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) for high-efficiency, zero-emission electricity generation (for biogas plants, heavy transport, and micro-grid applications), and as a Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cell (SOEC) to decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors such as steelmaking, ammonia production, and more.
In fuel cell mode, SOC systems can achieve efficiencies of up to 60%, while in electrolysis mode, they can reach up to 85%, delivering best-in-class performance compared to alternative technologies. The ability to produce high-grade heat in cogeneration mode, along with inherent fuel flexibility, makes SOFCs highly attractive for a wide range of stationary and transport applications. Moreover, the potential for thermal integration and co-electrolysis further enhances system efficiency and supports the production of e-fuels, strengthening the technology’s role in the energy transition.
Despite its tremendous potential, there are still challenges related to production costs that must be overcome. This is where the AMPS project steps in: AMPS aims to make a decisive jump forward by automating SOC manufacturing, reducing input materials through innovative recycling and reusing processes, and improving the overall efficiency of the production chain.
If you are interested in learning more about the SOC technology, join us for the AMPS Workshop on May 30th at 10:00 a.m. During the event, we will provide a comprehensive overview of the opportunities offered by SOCs, showcasing both future potential and existing real-world installations.
Workshop Highlights:
- Introduction to the AMPS Project and its goals
- SOC technology: applications and innovations
- SOC deployment in hard-to-abate sectors (steel, ammonia, biogas, and transport)
- Future perspectives for high-temperature electrochemical systems
Don’t miss this opportunity to connect with industry and research leaders and discover how SOC technologies can accelerate Europe’s clean energy future.
