Abstract
Due to the deep penetration of the renewable energy technologies and the
UK carbon incentive of providing almost 80% of energy through renewables
by 2050, it is required that the surplus energy to be stored. Apart from storing
excess energy into battery and other forms, storing hydrogen as energy by
electrolysis of water is of recent interest. This is due to the development of
new and high efficiency fuel cells that use hydrogen to generate electricity
that may be connected to the grid for power at times of need. Within that
context PEM Fuel cells are of great interest that have high efficiency and are
environmentally friendly [1]. Fig. 1 shows a single stack air breathing PEM
Fuel cell.
