Paths to market for stationary solid oxide fuel cells: Expert elicitation and a cost of electricity model

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can efficiently generate continuous electricity for buildings but face technical and economic challenges to achieving mass market acceptance. We conducted a workshop comprising 23 experts to assess near-term markets, system cost and production scale, and system and stack degradation rates. Experts identified commercial- and residential-scale systems as the most favorable entry-level markets in the U.S. and world,...
