Micro-cogeneration in residential applications is one of the efficient ways of improving the energy conversion efficiency in buildings. Cogeneration systems will cover electrical and thermal needs while reducing both energy bills and CO2 emissions. Thanks to its high efficiencies, SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) seems to be one of the major emerging technologies in this field. The optimal design and operation of such a system will contribute to its profitability, a system analysis is therefore necessary. In a residential fuel cell installation project, the three following steps will be essential : Measurement or evaluation of thermal and electrical requirements profiles; Optimal system design and equipment rating; Optimal operation and control strategy of the heat/electricity management
