AMTEC has always offered promise with its inherently noise-free, vibration-free, and high efficiency operation. Today's AMTEC cells are also compact, lightweight and reliable, achieving near 20% conversion efficiency. Pathways have been defined that should lead to efficiencies of 30% or higher within two years. Prototype AMTEC devices are being built today for applications ranging from powering deep space probes (100-150 W) to residential appliance cogeneration (350-500 W) to remote and portable power units (10-500 W). Multi-kilowatt systems may be only two years away. Current designs have power densities of 100-200 W/kg. At the start of the new millennium AMTEC performance will exceed the numbers given above with the power capacity reaching 10 kW or more. These high power systems will also provide 100 volts or more when desired. Some AMTEC devices may be designed to operate at input temperatures well below that required today (800-900/spl deg/C), providing more flexibility on the choice of heat source. Realization of industrial and consumer applications for AMTEC will depend on manufacturing economies achieved through simplification of cell fabrication and high volume production. Advanced Modular Power Systems, Inc. is developing AMTEC manufacturing technology which may lead to costs under $25/watt within two years and under $1/watt eventually. At this cost, AMTEC devices will find broad consumer, and industrial applications.","PeriodicalId":183668,"journal":{"name":"IECEC-97 Proceedings of the Thirty-Second Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference (Cat.

MCP has successfully scaled up the manufacturing and design of the MCFC technology to commercial area (1 m/sup 2/). Five commercial-area 20 kW stacks and two commercial-area 25O kW stacks have been built and operated. A third commercial (250-kW) stack is being assembled. Continuous process improvements and yield increases have been demonstrated for the manufacturing run for each successive 250 kW stack. These improvements resulted in a 63% reduction in the cost ofthe active area components from the first to the third 250 kW stack. Concurrent with the production and testing of commercial-area fuel cell stacks, M-C Power has an ongoing effort to develop, test, and scale-up to commercial-area advanced component technologies that will enable M-C Power to meet cost and performance, and endurance goals. This effort focuses on developing lower cost stack components with improved endurance and performance and evaluating alternate manufacturing procedures and raw materials which significantly lower the stack costs. Following performance verification at the bench scale level, scale-up of the advanced component manufacturing processes to the commercial-area has been ongoing for a year.","PeriodicalId":183668,"journal":{"name":"IECEC-97 Proceedings of the Thirty-Second Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference (Cat.

This paper is drawn from a larger study that found that most small and medium-sized plants participating in the IAC program will invest in an energy efficiency measure only if the investment's capital cost can be paid back in operational savings within two years. The most frequently recommended and implemented measures have payback periods of one year or less. Implementation rates appear to drop off only slightly with increasing payback periods. Moreover, the average payback period associated with implemented measures does not appear to increase with plant size or annual energy cost. First cost appears to be more important than payback period in determining whether a recommended measure will be implemented. For most recommended energy efficiency measures, a payback period of up to two years implies an implicit (real) discount rate of about 50 percent, which is higher than the values typically used to characterize industrial investment decisions in energy-economic models.","PeriodicalId":183668,"journal":{"name":"IECEC-97 Proceedings of the Thirty-Second Intersociety Energy Conversion Engineering Conference (Cat.
