If they could do it...why couldn't AU?


Fuel Cell Energy Project Highlights at two U.S. Universities



Central Connecticut State University (CCSU)

  • FuelCell Energy, Inc. installed an ultra-clean, efficient and reliable 1.4 megawatt Direct FuelCell®  power plant that meets approximately 35 percent of the campus power needs.
  • On-site power generation supports the University micro-grid, which ensures continuous power availability to critical campus buildings in the event of a disruption of the electric grid.
  • The campus and University System benefit with favorable economics that generate an estimated $100,000/ year in savings. 




California State University Northridge (CSUN)

  • CSUN installed a one megawatt (1 MW) stationary fuel cell power plant system from FuelCell Energy®
  • Approximately 18% of the university's baseload power requirement is met by the fuel cell power plants. 
  • The power plant also reduces greenhouse gas emissions of CO2 by more than 6,400 tons per year
