Scientists have increased the life of fuel cells – why that matters for solar and wind
August 25, 2022
In research that could jumpstart work on a range of technologies including fuel cells – key to storing solar and wind energy – MIT researchers have found a relatively simple way to increase the lifetimes of these devices: changing the “pH” of the system.
The US Department of Energy explains how fuel cells work:
Fuel cells work like batteries, but they do not run down or need recharging.
