Exxon and FuelCell Energy are partnering to develop a potential demonstration of modular point source carbon capture at an ExxonMobil facility. FuelCell Energy has received an order from Exxon for long-lead fuel cell stack module equipment and engineering support to equip the potential demonstration. While Exxon has not made a final investment decision, this order represents a step towards FuelCell Energy deploying its carbon capture technology. The carbon capture technology uses carbonate fuel cells to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by transferring CO2 from exhaust flue gases to the anode side of the fuel cell where it is more concentrated and easier to separate.
