  • Abstract
    The design, construction, and testing of an advanced 6 kW alkaline H2-O2 fuel cell module as part of a power source within the range of some kilowatts to hundreds of kilowatts is presented. The fuel cell uses supported platinum-free gas diffusion electrodes and a mobile electrolyte. The fuel cell system consists of the controlling and monitoring device, the equipment for the gas supply and the fuel cell modules. Measurements show increased system reliability, improved reproducibility of data, and high system efficiency. Technical maturity and system advantages increase the probability of application, if special requirements can be satisfied and if cost is of secondary importance
