Benchmark study of performances and durability between different stack technologies for high temperature electrolysis

Jerome Aicart,
Alexander Surrey,
Lucas Champelovier
et al.

Abstract: In the current landscape of high temperature electrolysis, mainly two solid oxide cell (SOC) technologies are being used: electrolyte‐supported and cathode‐supported SOCs. The geometrical differences, namely the thickness of the electrolyte, can lead to vastly different operating temperatures. Since most phenomena affecting performance and durability remain thermally activated, comparing stack technologies can be a difficult endeavor at best.While the most visible goal of the European project MultiPLHY consist… Show more

“…[6][7][8]11,12 For example, several durability tests over >1000 h of electrolyte-supported cell-based stacks have shown relative voltage increase rates as low as 0.5%-0.6%/kh. 7,8,15 While degradation rates of state-of-the-art stacks with fuel electrode supported cells seem to be higher on average, 12,[30][31][32][33] some studies report degradation rates of 0.5%-0.7%/ kh as well. 10,11,13 As a different metric, some long-term degradation studies prefer to use the resistance increase over time as a more accurate measure of degradation.…”

“…Consequently, the stack temperature was regularly increased to compensate for the degradation and maintain the cells in (near) thermoneutral operation. With this operation strategy, no hydrogen production loss (the hydrogen production being directly related to the current density) has been observed over the total test duration (26)(27).…”

“…A durability test has been started, with a current density of -0.65 A cm -2 , and a steam conversion of 70%. The operation strategy was as above and as reported in (26)(27), to operate at the thermoneutral voltage and to compensate the degradation by a temperature increase. The evolution of the temperature of the hotbox (the same for the two stacks) is reported in figure 10, and compared to the initial step of the 25-100 stack tested during 6800 h, operated in the same conditions and reported in (26)(27).…”
