Electrochemical device which transforms the<br />
chemical energy of a fuel into electricity and<br />
heat<br />
The fuel an cell consists of an electrolyte<br />
surrounded by an anode and a cathode.<br />
The electrolyte transmits only a specific type<br />
of ions, no liquids or gases<br />
High electrical efficiency, up to 60%, high<br />
total efficiency, up to 90%<br />
Low emissions<br />
Fuel flexibility, hydrogen, natural gas, biogas<br />

Large programs for residential<br />
fuel cell systems are in<br />
progress:<br />
Ene.farm 20 000 now, 20 000<br />
more expected in Japan<br />
Callux 600 units in Germany<br />
Ene.field 1 000 units in Europe<br />
in the near future<br />
Danish micro-fc 100 units<br />
Tens of MW:s of larger<br />
stationary MCFC, PAFC and<br />
SOFC, are constructed annually.<br />
Size from 200 kW to several<br />
MW.<br />
A 60 MW MCFC under<br />
construction in Korea<br />

Materials handling<br />
vehicles are sold in the<br />
thousands and the<br />
market is expanding<br />
Special vehicles like<br />
small trucks, small<br />
locomotives, loaders<br />
and harbor<br />
transporters have been<br />
demonstrated but not<br />
yet commercialized<br />
The potential is<br />
considerable<br />

Grid support and off-grid<br />
power for<br />
telecommunication is<br />
reaching a commercial<br />
stage.<br />
Data center UPS is also a<br />
strongly growing market<br />
Battery replacement for<br />
leisure time applications<br />
is another application<br />

It is expected that<br />
fuel cells driven<br />
vehicles and<br />
busses as well as<br />
fuel cell driven<br />
working machines<br />
be widely used in<br />
the future.<br />
At present more<br />
than 200 fuelling<br />
stations have<br />
been built and in<br />
the near future<br />
200 more are<br />
planned<br />

Fuel cells offers numerous applications in a<br />
large number of areas<br />
The product and market developments are in<br />
an initial stage all over the world<br />
Therefore there are many possibilities to<br />
develop new competitive and unique products<br />
for international markets<br />
