Doosan Fuel Cell teaming up with Samchully with the aim of advancing Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) in technology.

Doosan Fuel Cell, a leading player in the hydrogen fuel cell industry, has announced a strategic partnership with Samchully to expand its product lineup and enhance competitiveness. On April 3, Doosan Fuel Cell and Samchully signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to strengthen their ability to secure additional orders in the general hydrogen procurement market.

The partnership aims to accelerate the commercialization and wider adoption of mid- and low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) for power generation. By leveraging their respective strengths in technology and market reach, the collaboration seeks to make these fuel cells more commercially viable and attractive to customers in various sectors.

Technology Synergy

Doosan Fuel Cell, with its expertise in fuel cell technology, particularly in mid- and low-temperature SOFCs, brings advanced technological capabilities to the partnership. Samchully, known for its strong presence in energy solutions and distribution, can help optimize the production, marketing, and deployment of these fuel cells.

Cost Reduction & Efficiency Improvements

By working together, the two companies can focus on improving the efficiency, durability, and cost-effectiveness of mid- and low-temperature SOFCs. These improvements make them more commercially viable and attractive to customers in residential, commercial, and industrial power generation.

Market Expansion & Faster Commercialization

Samchully’s extensive market network and Doosan’s technical innovations can help scale up the manufacturing process and accelerate the introduction of SOFC-based power generation systems to new markets, enhancing adoption rates.

Support for Sustainable Energy Goals

The collaboration aligns with broader energy transition goals by promoting cleaner power generation technologies. The commercialization of efficient SOFCs aids in reducing reliance on fossil fuels and lowering carbon emissions.

In summary, the Doosan Fuel Cell–Samchully partnership aims to leverage combined technological expertise and market capabilities to make mid- and low-temperature SOFCs more commercially viable, thus promoting their broader adoption in power generation. This can lead to more accessible, efficient, and cleaner energy solutions in the near term.

Doosan Fuel Cell will promote and supply mid- and low-temperature SOFCs, invest in pilot projects, and manage hydrogen fuel cell power plant operations. Samchully will secure project sites and oversee business development across various regions. The partnership is expected to enhance Doosan Fuel Cell's market presence in the hydrogen sector.

Doosan Fuel Cell maintains over a 60% share in annual general hydrogen procurement bids and plans to commercialize the mid- and low-temperature SOFC in the second half of this year. The mid- and low-temperature SOFC offers high power efficiency and operates at 620°C-200°C lower than existing commercial SOFCs, resulting in a relatively longer lifespan.

The partnership between Doosan Fuel Cell and Samchully is designed to boost their competitiveness in the hydrogen market and aims to expand the adoption of domestically produced mid- and low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) for power generation. The representative from Doosan Fuel Cell did not provide further details about the partnership.
