Abstract
Technology advancement to address the world's growing demand for clean and affordable energy will require simultaneous advances in materials science and technology in order to meet the performance demands of new power-generating systems. Fuel cells emerge as highly efficient, fuel flexible, and environmentally friendly electricity producing devices. These unique characteristics advantageously differentiate fuel cells from conventional heat engines for power generation and therefore have attracted worldwide attention – from research and development activities in institutes to commercialization efforts in industries – for the last few decades. In this chapter, the history, advantages, applications, and designs of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are briefly reviewed.
