Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have fuel flexibility; in addition to hydrogen, various kinds of hydrocarbon fuels, such as natural gas (methane), methanol, ethanol, biofuel, and coal can be used via external steam reforming (ESR) or direct internal reforming (DIR). A paper on their work is published in the Journal of Power Sources.
