“…Many of the cases cited in literature refer to the use of SOFCs in combination with an external reformer fuelled with Diesel, something which would make the system easy to adapt to current ship energy systems. These systems can achieve up to 55% [75,24] electrical efficiency, with the additional potential for providing high-temperature heat, resulting in a net fuel consumption reduction of close to 50%. These types of systems were also tested in experimental conditions (as opposed to modelling studies), with promising results [59].…”
