The primary components of SOFCs are the anode, cathode, and the electrolyte. Anode is critical in achieving the effective electrochemical oxidation of fuel; thus, its performance can be improved using homogenous powder synthesized through an appropriate method. Various synthesis methods, including solidstate reaction and wet chemical methods have been used to synthesize anode materials. However, each technique has several advantages and disadvantages.Given that anode is a porous electrode, few criteria, such as high conductivity, tolerance towards carbon deposition, chemical stability, and thermal stability, must be fulfilled. Researchers also modified the existing synthesis method to improve the performance of the anode. In addition, various anode fabrication techniques including physical and colloidal deposition techniques are briefly discussed to understand their effect on the performance of the deposited layers.The aim of this review is to discuss the various anode synthesis and deposition techniques and their influence on the properties and performance of SOFCs.

“…However, molten carbonate and solid oxide‐based fuel cells have operating temperature in the range of 600°C to 700°C and 600°C to 1000°C, respectively . The high‐temperature solid oxide‐based fuel cells are getting attention due to their application in micro combined heat and power systems to provide heat and power; however, their proper commercial availability lacks due to high operating temperature of the cell, and research is underway to reduce the operating temperature by investigating different materials to be used in micro combined power systems . They also have promising applications in aircraft and railway industries …”

Summary In the modern world, only conventional energy resources cannot fulfil the growing energy demand. Electricity is a fundamental building block of a technological revolution. Today, most of the electricity demand is met by the burning of fossil fuels but at the cost of adverse environmental impact. In order to bridge the gap between electricity demand and supply, nonconventional and eco‐friendly means of energy generation are considered. Renewable energy systems (RESs) offer an adequate solution to mitigate the challenges originated due to greenhouse gasses (GHG). However, they have an unpredictable power generation with specific site requirements. Grid integration of RESs may lead to new challenges related to power quality, reliability, power system stability, harmonics, subsynchronous oscillations (SSOs), power quality, and reactive power compensation. The integration with energy storage systems (ESSs) can reduce these complexities that arise due to the intermittent nature of RESs. In this paper, a comprehensive review of renewable energy sources has been presented. Application of ESSs in RESs and their development phase has been discussed. Role of ESSs in increasing lifetime, efficiency, and energy density of power system having RESs has been reviewed. Moreover, different techniques to solve the critical issues like low efficiency, harmonics, and inertia reduction in photovoltaic (PV) systems have been presented. Unlike most of the available review papers, this article also investigates the impact of FACTS technology in RESs‐based power system using multitype flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) controllers. Three simulation models have been developed in MATLAB/Simulink. The results show that FACTS devices help to maintain the stability of RESs integrated power system. This review paper is believed to be of potential benefit for researchers from both the industry and academia to develop better understanding of challenges and solution techniques for REs‐based power systems and future research dimensions in this area.
