The Issue
Project Innovation
This project will develop and demonstrate the Argon Power Cycle (APC), which is a retrofittable thermodynamic power cycle technology. The APC is able to operate using large quantities of blended hydrogen (H2) that can exceed 30% by volume (and can go up to 100% pure H2) in fossil gas without generating greenhouse gas (GHG) or oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions, while maintaining benchmark fuel-to-electricity efficiency and generation system performance.
