Outline of Final Research Achievements

Metal Supported Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cell (MS-SOEC) was developed for instable renewable energy electricity utilization by hydrogen or carbon monoxide productions form water or carbon dioxide electrolysis. An MS-SOEC was produced under a new process, and demonstrated of electrolysis ability by cell experiment. The MS-SOEC methodology was expected to be applicable for enhancement of surface area of MS-SOEC and large-scale renewable energy system.
