Siemens Westinghouse Power Corporation and RWE have announced that the world’s longest operating high temperature fuel cell power system, the 100 kW solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) co-generation system, ...

PEM fuel cells have good efficiency and low operating temperature and could play an important role in power generation in the future. They are currently the leading technology for automotive ...

Volkswagen has taken a step further in the fuel cell technology stakes with the development of a high temperature fuel cell. Almost all current fuel cell technology is the low temperature kind, whose ...

A new type of hydrogen fuel cell operates at much lower temperatures than what’s typically required for existing fuel cells, bringing them closer to widespread implementation. Reading time 2 minutes ...

A collaborative research team, including Los Alamos National Laboratory, University of Stuttgart (Germany), University of New Mexico, and Sandia National Laboratories, has developed a proton conductor ...

Solid oxide fuel cells convert chemical fuels into electrical power. For more than a century, scientists have been working on techniques that provide better results and lower costs associated with ...

For a given electrolyte material and thickness, performance is largely determined by the electrode processes and these can be subdivided into Faradaic processes, largely charge transfer, and ...

Fukuoka, Japan—As global energy demand increases, researchers, industries, governments, and stakeholders are working together to develop new ways of meeting that demand. This is especially important ...

A collaborative research team has developed a proton conductor for fuel cells based on polystyrene phosphonic acids that maintain high protonic conductivity up to 200 C without water. A collaborative ...
