Additional information
Alkaline polymer exchange membranes present an opportunity to develop a low cost fuel cell. Until this paper the demonstrated power and efficiency performance of such fuel cells has been much lower than that of the sister acid, proton exchange polymer membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Through parallel membrane and electrode development, a radical increase in power has been achieved, and the data reported in this paper represents the highest performance reported of alkaline polymer membrane fuel cells to date. The research was supported by EPSRC project “Alkaline Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells” (EP/F035764/1; £383k).
