The research report highlights the growth potential of the global Fuel Cell market. Fuel Cell are expected to show stable growth in the future market. However, product differentiation, reducing costs, and supply chain optimization remain crucial for the widespread adoption of Fuel Cell. Market players need to invest in research and development, forge strategic partnerships, and align their offerings with evolving consumer preferences to capitalize on the immense opportunities presented by the Fuel Cell market.
A fuel cell is an energy conversion device that continuously converts chemical energy in a fuel into electrical energy, as long as both the fuel and oxidant are available. It exhibits advantageous characteristics exceeding conventional combustion-based technologies that are currently applied in certain critical fields, such as electronic, housing power, power plants, passenger vehicles, as well as military applications. Operating with higher efficiency than combustion engines, fuel cells demonstrate an electrical energy conversion efficiency of 60% or more, with lower emissions. Water is the only product of the power generation process in hydrogen fuel cells, and thus there are no carbon dioxide emissions or air pollutants that create smog and cause health problems during operation. Moreover, fuel cells emit low noise during operation, because they contain fewer moving parts. Fuel cells come in many varieties, but they all work in generally the same manner. In essence, a fuel cell consists of three adjacent segments, namely, the anode, electrolyte, and cathode. When hydrogen undergoes an oxidation reaction at the anode (), it generates cations that migrate to the cathode through the electrolyte and free electrons that flow the external circuit. Contrarily, a reduction reaction occurs at the cathode, where oxygen is reduced to water by the cations and electrons (Ralph et al., 1998). The electrochemical reaction that occurs at the cathode is . Based on the type of electrolyte used, fuel cells can be categorized into alkaline fuel cells (AFCs), PEMFCs, phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFCs), molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFCs), and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs).
