What is Fuel Cell Technology Market?
Fuel cell refers to a device that produces electricity through a chemical reaction which is between source fuel and oxidant. The source fuel could be almost anything that can be oxidized, including hydrogen, methane, propane, methanol, diesel fuel or gasoline. The only byproducts are water and a small amount of nitrous oxide if the air is used as the oxidizer.
The market study is being classified by Type (Polymer Exchange MembraneFuel Cell, Direct Methanol Fuel Cell, Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell, Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells, Solid Oxide Fuel Cell and Others), by Application (Portable, Stationary and Transportation) and major geographies with country level break-up.
