Anode-supported SOFC

Anode-supported Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are advanced energy devices that generate electricity by converting fuel directly, such as hydrogen or natural gas, into electrical power. They consist of a porous anode (fuel side), a dense electrolyte (middle layer), and a cathode (air side). The anode acts as a supportive backbone, providing structural strength while allowing fuel to pass through and react. These cells operate at high temperatures, which improve efficiency and fuel flexibility. Anode-supported designs are durable and cost-effective, making SOFCs suitable for clean power generation in various applications, from residential to industrial energy systems.
