MARKET INTRODUCTION  


The fuel cell stack is the heart of the fuel cell power system. It produces electricity in the form of direct current (DC) from the electrochemical reactions that occur in fuel cells. A single fuel cell produces less than 1V, which is not sufficient for most applications. Therefore, individual fuel cells are usually combined in series to form a fuel cell stack. A typical fuel cell stack can consist of hundreds of fuel cells. The amount of energy produced by a fuel cell depends on several factors, including fuel cell type, cell size, operating temperature, and pressure of gas supplied to the cell.

MARKET DYNAMICS


Political leaders from around the world have come together to reduce their carbon emissions and sign the Paris Agreement, helping green and renewable technologies take hold in the market. Fuel cells, as zero-emission solutions for power generation, meet the green and renewable technology category and are growing for CO2 emission standards. In addition, the German H2 Mobility program will support the introduction of fuel cell vehicles through the development of gas stations, expanding the possibilities of fuel cell use. In addition, a European project, Hydrogen for Innovative Vehicles (HyFIVE), aims to expand the hydrogen fuel cell network and develop stations in Italy, the United Kingdom, Austria and Denmark.
