Abstract: A current status is surveyed of research and development of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) in overseas countries. Several cases are presented concerning national subsidies for SOFCs in America and Europe, as well as R&D or deployment activities of SOFC manufacturers. These examples lead us to the idea that an activity towards SOFC deployment is glowing not only in Japan but also in the world.
