Abstract Potentially large amount of hydrogen resource in China could theoretically supply 100 × 106 fuel cell passenger cars yearly. The Chinese government highly values the hydrogen and fuel cell technology. Policies and plans have been put forward densely in the recent five years. Numerous companies, research institutes, and universities are developing proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC)-related technologies. A preliminary local supplier chain of fuel cell-related technology has been formed. However, the lifetime is still a key issue for the fuel cell technology. More than 3500 fuel cell range extender electric vehicles were manufactured during 2016 and 2018, and at the beginning of 2019, there have been more than 40 hydrogen refueling stations including both under operation and under construction. It is estimated the number of fuel cell-based electric vehicles will reach 36,000 by the end of 2020; therefore, lack of hydrogen refueling station has become a key restriction for development of the fuel cell vehicle industry.

Hybrid Electric

With their huge consumption of petroleum and creation of a large number of pollutants, traditional vehicles have become one of the major creators of pollution in the world. To save energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, in recent years national governments have aggressively planned and promoted energy-saving vehicles that use green energy. Thus, hybrid electric vehicles have already become the frontrunners for future vehicles while fuel cells are considered the most suitable energy storage devices for future hybrid electric vehicles. However, various competing fuel cell technologies do exist. Furthermore, very few scholars have tried to investigate how the development of future fuel cells for hybrid electric vehicles can be assessed so that the results can serve as a foundation for the next generation of hybrid electric vehicle developments. Thus, how to assess various fuel cells is one the most critical issues in the designing of hybrid electric vehicles. This research intends to adopt a framework based on Hybrid Multiple-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) for the assessment of the development in fuel cells for future hybrid electric vehicles. The analytic framework can be used for selecting the most suitable fuel cell technology for future hybrid electric vehicles. The results of the analysis can also be used for designing the next generation of hybrid electric vehicles.

Carbonate Fuel Cell

Fuel cell power generation has evolved from the laboratory and aerospace applications, and moved onto practical applications of stationary power generation and automotive propulsion, driven by its high-energy efficiency and low emissions. The success of the fuel cell technology depends on its performance, cost, and reliability in commercial applications. Fuel Cell Energy Inc. (Danbury, CT) has been developing its direct fuel cell (DFC™) technology for power generation based on internal-reforming carbonate fuel cells. The DFC technology integrates the reforming reaction within the carbonate fuel cell stack. The integration of the reforming process inside the high temperature fuel cell stack simplifies the fuel cell power plant system and makes the fuel cell technology more accessible to the practical usage with low cost and high efficiency. The internal-reforming direct carbonate fuel cell technology has progressed steadily with improvement in performance and success in precommercialization applications. Modeling and simulation of the fuel cell performance played an important role in the fuel cell development. This paper will illustrate improved mathematical model for the direct carbonate fuel cell with the internal-reforming process and complete fuel cell physical and chemical descriptions for the simulation. The model has been validated with data from real-scale fuel cell stacks and applied to fuel cell stack design. More powerful and reliable DFC stack with improved performance has been developed with the assistance of this model. This paper will present progress in developing high performance stack designs aided by modeling efforts, its impact on power increase, and cost reduction in the DFC product.
