A modular solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC) system including a stack of electrolyzer cells configured to receive steam in combination with hydrogen, and a steam recycle outlet configured to recycle a portion of the steam.

Control of the solid oxide electrolyzer

A solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC) system including a stack of electrolyzer cells configured to receive water or steam in combination with hydrogen, and a steam recycle outlet configured to recycle a portion of the water or steam.

Steam recycle control

A controller for a solid oxide electrolyzer cell (SOEC) system, the controller being configured to receive a target operating temperature, receive a readback temperature value, and output a temperature setpoint command to each of a plurality of heaters.

Power management control

Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments may provide for the selective enablement and disablement of tags, such as control/process tags, in controller area network (CAN) networks, such as power generation systems, including fuel cell systems connected by a CAN bus. The selective enablement and disablement of tags, such as control/process tags, according to the various embodiments may enable management of CAN traffic such that CAN bandwidth may not be exceeded in CAN networks, such as fuel cell systems connected by a CAN bus.

Method and apparatus for handling controller area network (CAN) messages in a fuel cell system

A system and method for controlling a fuel cell system. An anode tail gas oxidizer (ATO) receives air and fuel exhaust streams from one or more fuel cell stacks of the fuel cell system. The one or more fuel cell stacks provide current to one or more loads. An ATO temperature signal is used to control at least one of a fuel inlet flow to the one or more fuel cell stacks or the current provided to the one or more loads.
