A type of fuel cell that uses a solid ceramic material as its electrolyte. It operates at high temperatures and can utilize various fuels including natural gas, biogas, and hydrogen.

The process of separating water into hydrogen and oxygen using energy, in this case, from solar cells.

A technology being developed through DOE-funded projects to improve fuel cell performance and efficiency.

United States

A project to improve the performance of durable materials used to split water into oxygen and hydrogen, developing an innovative fuel cell architecture featuring new support for thin electrolytes and micro-electrodes.

A project to demonstrate the capabilities of solid oxide fuel cells and systems that can produce hydrogen at $2 per kilogram.
