ZIRCONIA UKRAINEMaterials and cells
Ceramic nanotechnology: engineering powder composition, thin-layer architecture and cell structure, with quality checks at each stage.
ZIRCONIA UKRAINE / SOFC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
Building the foundations of new energy systems.
Our ambition is to develop a Ukrainian solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) platform: from ceramic materials and cells to modular systems for industry. It aims to turn available gaseous and liquid fuels into electricity and useful heat efficiently.
RESEARCH LINEAGEFrom Davtyan’s Odesa school to Vasylyev’s SOFC research at the Frantsevych Institute
FIRST TARGETA 1500 W natural-gas SOFC generator prototype
LONG VIEW5, 10 and 25 kW base assemblies → 50 and 100 kW, then megawatt scale
Three ways to engage
Find the conversation that fits your interests.
One technology path
Building a capability, not just a device.
Each layer supports the next: materials enable repeatability, systems engineering enables operation, and partnerships open a path to deployment.
Stack and power module
Fuel system, thermal design, power electronics, controls and durability testing.
Industrial collaboration
Researchers, manufacturing partners, pilot sites, capital and a future service network.
Research continuity
People, research and real experimental systems.
From Odesa experiments to today’s laboratory: a visual history of Ukrainian fuel-cell research.
Programme / Stages
An ambitious plan built around evidence.
Test results and available resources will determine the pace. Expand each stage to see the technical work involved.
01Research and component foundation
Materials, cells, stack design, production and quality methods, and the necessary test infrastructure.
021500 W industrial generator prototype
The target is stable operation on natural gas, with an external reformer integrated into the module, replaceable stacks and extended durability tests.
035, 10 and 25 kW base assemblies
These assemblies form 50 and 100 kW configurations; pilot operation at a partner site validates integration and service.
04Modular industrial systems
The long-term goal is systems of approximately 250–1,000 kW and modular power plants of 5 MW and above. Configurations and performance will require separate validation and certification.
This is a target roadmap. It does not indicate that serial products or confirmed delivery dates are available.
Stage I / support
Explore the Stage I campaign Help make the first step possible.
We are seeking support for a 1500 W industrial SOFC generator prototype, testing and an engineering base in Ukraine. Financial gifts, equipment and professional contributions can all help.
For partners and supporters
There are many ways to take part.
We are looking for concrete shared tasks, from research materials and testing to an industrial pilot site. Support and early interest in future systems will help shape priorities.
