Summary
Rolls-Royce is coordinating the Phoenix project to develop the technologies for a hydrogen combustion engine to drive combined heat and power (CHP) systems.
The Phoenix (Performance Hydrogen Engine for Industrial and X) project, which is funded with almost €5 million ($5.4 million) by the German government, is aimed to generate the same electrical and thermal energy as currently available through natural gas CHP units in the higher power range of up to 2.5MW.
When fuelled by green hydrogen, this next-generation stationary energy plant, expected to be a first of its kind, should be able to run in a completely carbon-neutral manner.
“We are convinced that combustion engines will remain an essential part of the provision of a reliable energy supply during the energy transition,” said Dr Jörg Stratmann, CEO of Rolls-Royce Power Systems.
