Abstract
Fuel cell is the technology that, nowadays, is supposed having a great likely to be used in supplying energy. . Several fuel cells types which are currently identified having huge potential to be utilized, that is, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC), Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells (MCFC), Alkaline Fuel Cells (AFC), Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cells (PAFC), Polymer Electron Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (MFC) and Regenerative Fuel Cells (RFC). In general, each of these fuel cells types has their individual characteristics and specifications which allocate the capability and appropriateness of them to be utilized for any particular applications. Stationary power generations and transport applications are the two most significantapplications presently aimed for the fuel cell market. It is mostlyacknowledged that there are lots of advantages if fuel cellscan be excessively commercialized principally in context of environmental concerns and energy security. However, thisis a challenging task to be accomplished, as there is some gap in fuel cells technology itself which needs a major improvement. It can be summarized, from the previous study, cost, durability and performance are identified as the mainlimitations to be firstly overcome in enabling fuel cells technology become feasible for the market.
