BaZr(0.1)Ce(0.7)Y(0.2)O(3-delta)(BZCY) electrolyte has been extensively studied as novel electrolyte for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFCs). In this short communication, we report our progress on the fabrication and characterization of the high performance anode supported BZCY cell. Maximum power density of 650 mW/cm(2) at 700 degrees C is obtained for the single cell with configuration of Ni-BZCY/BZCY (20 um)/SSC-BZCY. Further, significant performance enhancement is observed during long-term stability test at 600 degrees C under constant voltage of 0.5 V, indicating excellent stability of BZCY under fuel cell operating condition. Those results indicate that BZCY based cell is very promising for practical applications. Copyright (C) 2011, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
