Abstract

Solid oxide fuel cells are gradually evolving from the laboratory stage to technology being introduced to the market. New products address real consumers, though at first niche areas only. In European SOFC development, planar designs prevail. Several companies are already offering cells, stack components, stack modules and complete units, at least at a pre-competitive level, e.g. for demonstration projects. This contribution offers an overview of European developments and summarizes the activities around the Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (JTI) and the projects conducted with JU funding.
