Bipolar plates (BPs) are integral components in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), serving multiple functions such as conducting electrical current between cells, distributing reactant ...

Bipolar plates form the backbone of proton exchange fuel cells and consequently capture a significant portion of the fuel cell stack value, with IDTechEx forecasting their market value to exceed ...

Researchers at the University of Sevilla in Spain have developed a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with a bipolar plate (BP) based on a nature-inspired structure. According to the ...

Bipolar plates – the backbone of proton exchange membrane (PEM) hydrogen fuel cell stacks – have become somewhat of a leak test problem for manufacturers in the fuel cell field. Considering the ...

Fuel cells combine hydrogen with oxygen to generate "clean" electricity and heat, with the only waste product being clean water. However, the widespread adoption of fuel cells is limited by the cost ...

The new IDTechEx report, "Materials for PEM Fuel Cells 2023-2033", provides a comprehensive technical overview of bipolar plates and other key components for PEM fuel cells, an assessment of the major ...
