Summary "High-temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology is a promising power generation option that features high electrical efficiency and low emissions of environmentally polluting gases. It is ideal for distributed stationary power generation applications where both high-efficiency electricity and high-quality heat are in strong demand. This book presents a systematic and in-depth narrative of the technology from the perspective of fundamentals, providing comprehensive theoretical analysis and innovative characterization techniques for SOFC technology."--Jacket
