Low-temperature SOFCs with thick-film anodes such as those developed by Ceres Power for its metal supported SOFC are inherently more resistant to REDOX cycling as a result of loss of fuel supply at temperature than traditional SOFC designs. This is due to the slow kinetics of nickel oxidation at low temperature and th…
