Research on fuel cells have been carried out at Risø since the 1980s. In 1989 the Danish SOFC research was consolidated in the project DK-SOFC with Risø as project leader. A long term collaboration with the Danish company Haldor Topsøe A/S led to a formal agreement in 2001 to develop and commmercialize the Danish SOFC technology. Haldor Topsøe's SOFC activities was transferred in 2004 to the wholly owned subsidiary Topsoe Fuel Cell A/S. In 2006 Risø and Topsoe Fuel Cell signed a new five year partnership agreement. As a result of the continued growth in Risø's activities, a new department for Fuel Cells and Solid State Chemistry was created in 2006.
Our strategy is based on doing technological development in parallel with fundamental research.
