Alkaline Fuel Cell Key Players

Alkaline fuel cells (AFC) are one of the earliest fuel cell developments, demonstrated by Francis Thomas Bacon in the 1950s and later used for NASA's Apollo space missions. AFCs utilise a potassium hydroxide electrolyte contained in a porous matrix and operate at temperatures from 20-200°C. In this premium article, IDTechEx explores the AFC market and key players and the current application scope of the technology.
