New energy sources are classified into three types: fuel cell, hydrogen energy and coal liquefied gas. POSCO E&C has been currently executing an EPC turn-key project for a fuel cell power plant.

A fuel cell operates according on the basis of a theory that is the opposite of the reaction which occurs between hydrogen and oxygen upon electrolyzing water. Waste heat energy produced by power generation (as a result of reacting hydrogen collected from LNG with oxygen in the air) can be recovered and utilized for heating, and has recently been recognized as a clean energy source with very high efficiency.
