Abstract

Abstract High‐temperature CO 2 electrolysis in solid‐oxide electrolysis cells (SOECs) could greatly assist in the reduction of CO 2 emissions by electrochemically converting CO 2 to valuable fuels through effective electrothermal activation of the stable CO bond. If powered by renewable energy resources, it could also provide an advanced energy‐storage method for their intermittent output. Compared to low‐temperature electrochemical CO 2 reduction, CO 2 electrolysis in SOECs at high temperature exhibits higher current density and energy efficiency and has thus attracted much recent attention. The history of its development and its fundamental mechanisms, cathode materials, oxygen‐ion‐conducting electrolyte…
