Le Dauphiné Libéré – Today at 19:29

In this system there is no liquid, it is the very high temperature which allows better ionic conductivity and therefore better performance. The main disadvantages of very high temperature are the loss of energy used to heat the system and the increased risk of material deterioration. “One of the major objectives of research in the field of SOFCs is to reduce their operating temperature, from 1,000°C to 700°C, which would increase their lifespan and lower their manufacturing and operating costs”, explains Élisabeth Djurado. “The challenge of our current projects is to find the right materials that will allow good durability in the operation of these systems. »
