Abstract:
Reversible solid oxide cells (SOC) could potentially contribute to electrical energy storage in the future. SOCs are expected to be capable of producing electricity using stored fuels and in reverse mode of producing hydrogen or syngas that can be stored or processed further to produce easily storable fuels. Their potential use for energy storage will be influenced by the efficiencies, economic benefits, demand for large scale energy storage and the development of competing technologies. The paper will present the current status of the technology, system thermodynamics and a comparison with competing energy storage options.
