Micro Fuel Cells Market : Popular Trends And New Business Opportunities 2016 - 2026

Micro fuel cells is a power source for electronic devices that uses oxidized hydrogen or alcohol that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Micro fuel cells are used as an alternative of batteries in mobiles, laptops, cameras and portable radios, it provides power up to 50 Watts. They can be said as scaled down versions of the micro fuel cells (that are used in vehicles). A conventional battery works on the principle of electrolysis (reactions between electrolytes and metals) and their chemical nature changes by time, while the micro fuel cells consumes its own fuel leaving an empty reservoir or cartridge. They can be charged instantly by adding more fuel in it or by using a new cartridge, thus it overcomes the major drawback of batteries that takes several hours to recharge. Micro fuel cells are also environment friendly as the fuel used is hydrogen and oxygen, the waste formed at the end of the process will be in the form of increased humidity around the cells. Methanol based micro fuel cells can provide 10 times more energy storage than Lithium battery. Thus the global Micro fuel cells are expected to witness a healthy CAGR in the forecasted period.
