Abstract

In this paper fuel cell technology can belong to either of the above categories. If the hydrogen fuel needed to power the fuel cell is generated from a renewable source, the fuel cell power generating unit is considered a renewable energy technology. i.e., wind and solar energy used to generate hydrogen to fuel a fuel cell stack. On the contrary, if hydrogen is produced from a fossil fuel source (e.g., natural gas or methane), the fuel cell is considered a nonrenewable energy technology. Fuel cells have numerous benefits which make them superior compared to the other technologies.
