The Colorado School of Mines (Mines) team will develop a hybrid power generation system using a solid oxide fuel cell stack combined with an internal combustion engine. The system will use the hot air and exhaust gases it produces to keep components running at the proper temperatures to maximize efficiency.

The K6 engine uses six strokes instead of four to reduce the pressure of exhaust gases, which allows it to harvest more energy rather than expelling it with the gas. Complete combustion of fuels results in low emissions which are not adversely affected by sulfur-containing fuels. —Timothy Shedd. Kashmerick and Timothy A.
