The fuel cell is a potential candidate for energy storage andconversion in our future energy mix. It is able to directly convertthe chemical energy stored in fuel (e.g. hydrogen) intoelectricity, without undergoing different intermediary conversionsteps. In the field of mobile and stationary applications, it isconsidered to be one of the future energy solutions. Among the different fuel cell types, the proton exchange membrane(PEM) fuel cell has shown great potential in mobile applications,due to its low operating temperature,

The book reports recently developed analytical physics-based models for impedance of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell. Chapter 1 discusses the transient macro-homogeneous model for the cathode catalyst layer. This model forms a basis for all impedance models discussed in this book. Chapter 2 reports solvable analytical impedance models. These models are very fast; the respective numerical algorithms for fitting impedance spectra yield the result in just several minutes on a standard PC. However, the assumptions behind the model equations limit their

Fuel cells are expected to play a major role in the future power supply that will transform to renewable, decentralized and fluctuating primary energies. At the same time the share of electric power will continually increase at the expense of thermal and mechanical energy not just in transportation, but also in households. Hydrogen as a perfect fuel for fuel cells and an outstanding and efficient means of bulk storage for renewable energy will spearhead this development together with fuel cells.
