Regenerative Energy Storage System for Space Exploration Missions

This paper describes the development and testing of a 1 kW reversible solid oxide fuel cell intended for energy storage on space exploration missions, particularly for long term Mars exploration. The energy is stored as H2 or CO produced by electrolysis of H2O or CO2. The reactants are then converte...
