Abstract

Most world country dependent on foreign oil to make things working, which means political disputes or any disputes between countries can result in energy crunches. The negative changes that occur in the global climate and environment due to the burning of fossil fuels, stimulate the search for modern and environmentally friendly sources of energy production. In addition, continued concern about the storage and processing of nuclear waste may limit nuclear energy options. New concepts use nanotechnology as a new application for production of the electricity. In the modern thin-film application technologies, a number of layers can be deposited to improve the cells' energy density, reduce operating temperatures, and lower manufacturing costs. Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), which have the ability to convert chemical energy into electrical energy without combustion, are among the advantages of this cell; High efficiency and much less pollution. Fuel cells - zinc, air, proton exchange membranes, and solid oxide are recent and established energy applications. Several of these solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have emerged as fuel cell technology that has additional positive advantages.
