FuelCell Energy to Host National Laboratory-Supported AI Data Center Power Testbed in Connecticut Manufacturing Facility

FuelCell Energy is participating in StabilityMax, a three-year collaborative project led by the U.S. Department of Energy's National Laboratory of the Rockies & includes Argonne National Laboratory.
The initiative aims to develop & validate integrated power system architectures designed to meet the rapidly evolving energy requirements of AI data centers.
FuelCell Energy will develop a fuel cell test facility in Connecticut to serve as a national laboratory-supported testbed for evaluating integrated power solutions.
The project combines FuelCell Energy's fuel cell technology with NLR's expertise in AI infrastructure modeling & power systems engineering to optimize system designs & validate performance.
NLR will create data center load profiles & simulation models to capture dynamic power demands, while Argonne National Laboratory will provide techno-economic & lifecycle analyses.
StabilityMax is part of a broader NLR initiative to support the growing energy needs of AI-enabled digital infrastructure through new modeling tools, planning platforms, & test environments.
The project builds on FuelCell Energy's previous collaboration with Siemens to advance a layered architecture approach for supporting evolving AI data center power requirements.
Insights from StabilityMax are expected to inform future deployment strategies for integrating fuel cells, energy storage, & power electronics in data center environments.
