Aerospace

An aircraft propulsion system that uses hydrogen fuel cells to generate electricity for electric motors.

A propulsion system that combines electric power with a traditional engine (in this case, a fuel cell or shore connection/battery), allowing for flexible and efficient power usage.

Devices that convert chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through an electrochemical reaction, producing minimal emissions.
