Proton Exchange Membrane or Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cell is a type of fuel cell incorporating a solid polymer (a proton conducting polymer) membrane used as the electrolyte, and operates at approximately 80°C. A PEM Fuel Cell is operated at relatively low temperatures and can quickly output to meet shifting power demands so that a PEM Fuel Cell is the best candidates for powering automobiles by which the output is ranged from 50 to 250 kW.
