Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Electrochemical systems for distributed energy generation, comprising protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs), are provided. The systems of the present invention allow for operation at lower stack temperatures than current solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) systems. These systems can achieve various advantages and benefits over SOFC systems, such as higher fuel utilization, improved cell voltage, and air ratio optimization.
