Abstract

Polymer electrolyte-based fuel cells are emerging as attractive energy conversion systems suitable for use in many industrial applications, starting from a few milliwatts for portables to several kilowatts for stationary and automotive applications. The ability of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) to offer high chemical to electrical fuel efficiency and almost zero emissions in comparison to today’s prevailing technology based on internal combustion engines (ICEs) makes them an indispensable option as environmental concerns rise.
