Abstract
Electricity generation from solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) based power generator are in great demand for both stationary and automotive use. SOFC is considered as one of the best energy conversion devices that is available to demonstrate Nissan’s carbon neutrality goal by 2050. In particular, SOFCs are known for their fuel-flexible operations, for example, SOFCs can operate on renewable fuels such as ethanol, natural gas, jet-fuel, propane. Unlike H2 based polymer fuel cell, the possibility of utilizing liquid fuels directly in SOFCs can pave the way to adopt the existing fuel infrastructure and can limit the greenhouse gas emissions significantly. This abstract presents the potential of using externally supported SOFCs, such as metal based SOFCs (metal-SOFCs) as the highly performing and durable power generator. It is identified that the metal-SOFC technology is a closest viable solution for using SOFCs in stationary and automotive applications.
