Biogas-powered fuel cell in Connecticut

IKEA, the world’s leading home furnishings retailer, recently announced for its first biogas-powered fuel cell system on the east coast at its store in New Haven, Connecticut. A year ago, IKEA completed installation of such a project at IKEA Emeryville, one of the Swedish company’s two San Francisco-area stores. IKEA now plans to expand its fuel cell portfolio to 1.3 MW with a system at its other San Francisco-area store (in East Palo Alto), as well as three stores in Southern California (Costa Mesa, Covina and San Diego). Pending permits, the fuel cells will be installed, commissioned and operational by this Fall, 2016, complementing solar arrays already atop each of the four stores.
