Abstract :
The U.S. Department of Energypsilas (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy (FE) is sponsoring the development of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) under the Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance (SECA) and advanced ldquozero-emissionrdquo coal-based power technology - technology that is capable of producing power and other products such as hydrogen while capturing over 90 percent of potential carbon dioxide emissions for permanent geologic storage - under the FutureGen Alliance.
