Abstract
This paper discusses the progress and status of two solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems being developed for stationary power generation applications: 3-10 kW simple-cycle, ambient-pressure SOFC systems and MW-class pressurized SOFC/gas turbine (GT) hybrid systems. The SOFC for both the systems is based on a planar design and operates at about 800°C. The fuel cell can also operate efficiently with fuels containing light hydrocarbons. To date, a prototype for the 3-10 kW system has been designed and is in construction. Several configurations have been developed for power plants based on MW-class SOFC/GT hybrid systems and the feasibility of pressurized operation for laboratory-scale planar SOFCs has been demonstrated.
