ORCEPAC
The ORCEPAC project is born from a collaboration between the University of Belfort-Monbéliard (UTBM) and Fiaxell (CH). A whole consortium with DEPHIS (France) and EPFL (CH ) has been created to apply for an Interreg application.
The goal of this project is to optimize the deposition of the ceria layer in the frame of two different processes:
- Physical vapor deposition (PVD)
- Screen printing and sintering
The fabrication costs for each technique will be also studied.
The project is funded by the Interreg VA- 2014-2020 fund which finances various projects between partners across the border between Switzerland and France.
Project status: ongoing
SPECo
Since 2011, Fiaxell is considered as a Cleantech company and thus got financial support from the SPECo (Service de la promotion économique et du commerce du canton de Vaud).
This financial support gave to Fiaxell the opportunity to develop a specialized machine for redox resistant 2R-Cell fabrication and the development of the tubular ceramic kit for the Open Flange test Set-Up (see picture on the left).
The SPECo also financially helps Fiaxell for miscellaneous commercial advertisements and worldwide product dissemination.
Project status: ongoing
CleantechAlps
Fiaxell is part of Cleantech Alps, which promote clean technologies in Switzerland and give punctual financial helps for commercial advertisements.
Project status: ongoing
RoxSolidCell
The Roxsolidell project is an Eureka-Eurostars application and has been conducted with industrial and academic partners from Switzerland, France and Norway.
During the project, a pilot production line for the redox resistant 2R-Cell could be set up and their integration into an industrial fuel cell stack could be implemented.
The 2R-Cell, mounted in a SolidPower stack, successfully passed the quality control test. Solidpower S.p.a. (Italy), is the producer of the SOFC based CHP system BlueGen
This project has been funded by the European Community and in Switzerland by the State Secretariat for Education Research and Innovation (SERI).
