The fuel cells made at this time were most similar to today's phosphoric acid fuel cells. [1] Most hydrogen fuel cells today are of the proton exchange membrane (PEM) type. A PEM converts the chemical energy released during the electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and oxygen into electrical energy.
Natural gas was first used in America for lighting in 1816. [14] Since then, natural gas has grown in importance, especially for electricity generation. US natural gas production peaked in 1973, [15] and the price has risen significantly since then. Coal provided the bulk of US energy needs well into the 20th century. Most urban homes had a ...
Hydrogen pipeline transport is a transportation of hydrogen through a pipe as part of the hydrogen infrastructure. Hydrogen pipeline transport is used to connect the point of hydrogen production or delivery of hydrogen with the point of demand, pipeline transport costs are similar to CNG, [9] the technology is proven, [10] however most hydrogen is produced on the place of demand with every 50 ...

UTC Power was a fuel cell company based in South Windsor, Connecticut. It was part of United Technologies Corporation; it was purchased by ClearEdge Power in February 2013. The company specialized in fuel cells for buildings, [1] buses [2] and automobiles. [3] It has also developed fuel cells for space [4] and submarine applications in the past.
It designs, manufactures, operates and services Direct Fuel Cell power plants, which is a type of molten carbonate fuel cell. As one of the biggest publicly traded fuel cell manufacturers in the U.S., [3] the company provides clean energy in over 50 locations all over the world. [4]
A Brownstown Township factory is the first to make full hydrogen fuel cell systems in mass volume for commercial use by GM and Honda.
Stationary fuel-cell applications (or stationary fuel-cell power systems) are applications for fuel cells that are either connected to the electric grid (distributed generation) to provide supplemental power and as emergency power system for critical areas, or installed as a grid-independent generator for on-site service.
