Popis:	The main challenges for High Temperature Steam Electrolysis (HTSE) to become competitive towards other hydrogen production technologies are the increase of performance and durability and the decrease of cost. For that purpose, a “low-weight” stack has been designed, including advanced cells and stack components. A performance of -1.9 A.cm-2 at the thermoneutral voltage of 1.3 V has been obtained at 800°C at the scale of a 3-cell stack and its robustness upon thermal cycling has been validated. The upscaling of the technology has been checked with a stack of 10 cells that allowed producing 0.9 Nm3.h-1 of hydrogen. Techno-economical analysis showed that this low-weight design led to a considerable decrease of the stack cost.
