A distributed power network includes a power bus infrastructure distributed over a region with node points provided to interface with controllable power nodes. Each power node can be connected to an external power device such as a DC power sources, a DC power load, or a rechargeable DC battery. The power nodes form a communication network and cooperate with each other to receive input power from DC power sources and or rechargeable DC batteries connected to the power bus infrastructure and distribute the power received therefrom to the power bus infrastructure for distribution to the DC power loads and to rechargeable DC batteries.

Power manager with reconfigurable power converting circuits

A fuel reformer module () for initiating catalytic partial oxidation (CPOX) to reform a hydrocarbon fuel oxidant mixture () to output a syngas reformate () to solid oxide fuel cell stack (). A solid non-porous ceramic catalyzing body () includes a plurality of catalyst coated fuel passages (). A thermally conductive element (), with a coefficient of thermal conductivity of 50 W/m&#xb0; K or greater is thermally conductively coupled with the catalyzing body. A first thermal sensor () is thermally conductively coupled with the thermally conductive element. A second thermal sensor is thermally conductively coupled with a surface of the fuel cell stack. A control method independently modulates an oxidant input flow rate, based on first thermal sensor signal values, a hydrocarbon fuel input flow rate, based on second thermal sensor signal values.
