A device that transforms the energy contained in ethanol into electrical energy is known as an ethanol power generator. A type of biofuel called ethanol is created from agricultural plants like corn, sugarcane, or switchgrass. It can also be produced from organic wastes like wood chips or agricultural byproducts.
To create electricity from ethanol, the fuel is burned in a combustion chamber to produce heat. The steam created by the heat is then used to power a turbine generator, creating energy. Carbon dioxide and water vapour are two byproducts of combustion that are discharged into the atmosphere.
In locations without access to conventional power sources or as a standby power source during power outages, ethanol power generators can be utilised to generate electricity. They are also utilised in some isolated areas to power machines and equipment.
However, ethanol power plants are less effective in producing electricity than other methods, such those that use natural gas or nuclear energy. They also need a consistent supply of ethanol fuel, which in certain places can be expensive and challenging to find. Ethanol production may also have harmful effects on the environment, such as increased water demand and land conversion.
Global ethanol power generator market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
A novel Personal Energy System (PES) from E-Fuel Corporation uses hydrous ethanol as fuel to power generators for homes and businesses. The PES is the first generator fueled by hydrous fuel combustion that may utilise extra surplus energy to heat houses or businesses. Moreover, E-Fuel has created a generator and pump to power a 100% ethanol-based irrigation system.
Nissan has announced the creation of the first automotive-grade Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) power generator. Via the SOFC, the e-Bio Fuel-Cell produces electricity utilising the bioethanol that is already present in the car. Using hydrogen created by reforming fuel and ambient oxygen, the e-Bio Fuel-Cell generates energy to power the vehicle through an electrochemical reaction.
