The article discusses the progress in advancing hydrogen manufacturing through the development of low-cost and scalable manufacturing processes for hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysis cells. The US government has made significant investments in the Hydrogen Economy to facilitate the decarbonization of the energy system, with a particular focus on clean hydrogen technologies. Solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOECs) are highlighted as energy storage units that can produce hydrogen from renewable sources and water, presenting a cleaner alternative to traditional hydrogen production methods. Research efforts are directed towards enhancing the thermal shock properties of 3D printed anode supports for solid oxide fuel cells, aiming to improve their efficiency. Additive manufacturing (AM) is proposed as a potential technological path to enable cost-effective production of durable SOECs, aligning with the goal of reducing the cost of electrolytic hydrogen. The critical role of SOFCs and SOECs in the energy sector for generating electricity and producing fuels with high efficiency is emphasized. Overall, the article conveys a positive sentiment towards the advancement of hydrogen manufacturing technologies and the potential for clean energy solutions in the future.
