Lower temperature operation of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is highly desirable for achieving lower cost because less expensive metallic materials can be used for the complete system. Towards this goal, use of a more conducting electrolyte based on scandia-doped zirconia is a promising choice of an electrolyte. A co…
