at both locations
Please share with your Job Club participants
-- from
the article…FuelCell’s
headquarters and research and development facilities are in Danbury,
while its manufacturing operations are in Torrington. The
company has been hiring at both locations, beefing
up its employment levels because of Project 100 and because of its
increasing visibility worldwide.
Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2007 10:43 AM Subject: FuelCell Energy of Danbury could cement its position as the world’s leading commercial fuel cell manufacturing company
Fuel cells get
juiced -- Danbury company
rides the new current
FuelCell Energy
of Danbury could cement its position as the world’s leading
commercial fuel cell manufacturing company by doubling the world’s
capacity of fuel cell output during the next few years if the
state’s Department of Public Utility Control accepts six FuelCell
projects submitted under the state’s Project 100.
“This is a very
large step forward for FuelCell Energy and the fuel cell
industry,” said Frank Wolak, FuelCell’s vice president, of the
projects being forwarded by the state’s two utilities to the DPUC.
“The total installed capacity of commercial fuel cell power plants
worldwide is about 50 megawatts to 60 megawatts,” Wolak said. The
six Project 100 FuelCell projects now in the hands of DPUC total
67.7 megawatts (MW). “This is the first visibility of
multimegawatt power plants in the world,” he said. “When this
comes to fruition, Connecticut will more than double the worldwide
fuel cell capacity to date.”
The six FuelCell projects four of them in Fairfield County were among 11 projects chosen by the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund earlier this year and forwarded to the state’s two utilities for analyses. Three of them, two at 19.6 MW each and one at 13.7 MW, will be the largest fuel cells in the world. All three will be located in Fairfield County. “We manufacture large-scale fuel cell power plants,” said Wolak. “We view ourselves as a world leader in the large, multimegawatt fuel cells and high-efficiency fuel cells. There’s no one in the world that comes close to the type, size and commercial status of our fuel cell technology.”
One other fuel
cell a 1 MW project by United Technologies in Hartford was
included in the 11 that Connecticut Light and Power (CL&P) and
United Illuminating analyzed and forwarded to the DPUC Aug. 22.
“We don’t give a thumbs up or a thumbs down on any of these,” said Mitch Gross of CL&P’s communications department. “Our participation in the process is very limited. All we do is analyze them for cost to the consumer and possible savings to the consumer.” Anita Steeves of United Illuminating said the cost-benefit analysis of the projects “shows that the Connecticut utility customers will pay a premium associated with the development of these projects.” But “the long-term thought is that over time the renewable resources will stabilize prices as we displace the need for fossil fuel generation,” said David Goldberg of the DPUC. “Most renewable resources are more expensive to develop and build, but once they’re built, the fuel cost is typically less than fossil fuels,” Goldberg said. And although fuel cells use natural gas, its use is more efficient in a fuel cell, he said. Worldwide visibility
The General
Assembly mandated that 100 MW of renewable energy generation
later beefed up to 150 MW be under contract with the state’s two
public utilities by 2008. CL&P and United Illuminating will buy
power from the renewable sources approved by the DPUC. “FuelCell
Energy can get one or two or all of them selected,” Goldberg said,
although chances are all of the 11 projects will be approved. The
state’s legislature mandated that all the Project 100 initiatives
be determined by the end of this year.
Once contracts are negotiated, he said, it could take anywhere between two and five years “before these things are up and running.” And although some projects have already moved through the permitting and site-plan process, “we’re still looking out several years before you’ll have operational projects.”
