This presentation will describe the latest developments for the Hybrid Sulfur cycle, which is being considered for demonstration with the Next Generation Nuclear Plant. It will include a status update on the SO2-depolarized electrolyzer (present vs. projected performance, scale-up, component development, etc.) as well as performance projections for the pilot and engineering scale plants.
