A fuel cell is a device that generates electric energy through electrochemical reactions between an oxidizing agent and a fuel – a material that stores energy in chemical form. Both species are ...

A fuel cell is a device that uses a source of fuel, such as hydrogen, and an oxidant to create electricity from an electrochemical process. Much like the batteries that are found under the hoods ...

In a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, hydrogen and oxygen are used to produce a voltage. Water is the only product. The overall reaction in a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell is: ...

“Fool cells.” That’s how Elon Musk once famously described fuel-cell vehicles. Too expensive and too inefficient said the once — but no longer future — king of EVs, referring to cars ...

But the real reason that fuel-cell vehicles — be they passenger or commercial — are in the doldrums is infrastructure and cost. As in, there are no hydrogen stations, and what few there are ...

At the SFU Fuel Cell Research Lab (FCReL), we perform cutting-edge research on hydrogen energy technologies as a complement to renewable electricity. We focus on the electrochemical energy conversion ...

However, most remaining cell types in the human body have mitochondria, adequate oxygen supply, and access to all three fuel molecules. Which fuel, then, is preferentially used by each of these cells?
