Fuel cells are one of the most efficient means of converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The major deterrents to the commercialisation of fuel cell technologies, especially for the transport sector, are the hydrogen storage and almost non-existence of hydrogen transportation and...

The DCFC (direct carbon fuel cell) technology, based on the direct electrochemical oxidation of carbon, has the potential to double the electric efficiency and half the CO2 emissions compared to conventional coal fired power plants. In order to assess the scalability of the technology in terms...
