Fuel cells (FCs) are promising devices for distributed generation applications. They are static energy conversion devices that convert the chemical energy of fuel hydrogen directly into electrical energy. Their particular advantage is that they are clean power generation sources with modular structure and can be placed near loads at different levels – houses, commercial buildings or distribution centers. They can be considered a renewable power generation source when the fuel hydrogen supplied is produced from renewable energy, such as wind or solar. This panel aims to address the value and cost of hydrogen, its production from renewable energy sources, challenges of its production, and current and potential applications of solid-oxide and PEM fuel cells.
