Abstract
Background:
During last few years, the proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) underwent a huge development.
Method:
The different contributions to the design, the material of all components and the efficiencies are analyzed.
Result:
Many technical advances are introduced to increase the PEMFC fuel cell efficiency and lifetime for transportation, stationary and portable utilization.
Conclusion:
By the last years, the total cost of this system is decreasing. However, the remaining challenges that need to be overcome mean that it will be several years before full commercialization can take place.This paper gives an overview of the recent advancements in the development of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel cells and remaining challenges of PEMFC.
Keywords: Fuel cells, PEMFC, Energy resources, Modeling Advances, Commercialization, Transportation, Challenges.
