Dimensions
27.7 x 4.9 m
Surface area
(approx.) 140 square meters
To support farms-or at any rate farms that produce agro-industrial waste-in the transition from traditional combustion-based energy sources, Cefla has developed NOVAbio by Cefla, a solution that integrates Bloom Energy's Energy Server™ fuel cell module in a CHP version, and thus produces electricity and thermal energy:
- by zeroing emissions of pollutants into the atmosphere (NOx, SOx, CO, particulate matter)
- achieving greater efficiency (efficiency exceeds 80%)
- -30% biogas input: the higher efficiency makes it possible to reduce the digester feed to produce biogas, so for the same electrical production there is a saving of agricultural biomass feed to the digester, varying between a 30 and a 50%

Scheme of operation
NOVAbio by Cefla is a modular solution that starts from a power of 250kW and multiples (500kW, 750kW, 1MW, 2MW ...) that can be easily customized in case more power is needed, and is easy to install thanks to the "plug&play" logic.
