Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells

PEM fuel cells, which directly and effectively transform the chemical energy held in hydrogen fuel into electrical energy with water as the only waste, have the potential to lower our energy consumption, emissions of pollutants, and reliance on fossil fuels. A lot of work has been put into advancing PEM fuel cell technology and basic research in the past, especially during the previous few decades or so. Durability and cost continue to be the fundamental obstacles to the commercialization of fuel cells. A lifespan of about 2500 hours (for PEM fuel cells used in transportation) was reached in 2009, but it still has to be doubled to reach the DOE's objective of 5000 hours. The need for breakthroughs to get over these obstacles is critical.
