Fuel Cells
An electrochemical cell converts the compound liveliness of a fuel into electricity via an electrochemical reaction of hydrogen fuel with oxygen or another oxidizing agent. Power modules differ from batteries in that they require a continuous source of fuel and oxygen (usually from air) to support the compound reaction, but in a battery, the substance vitality originates from synthetic concoctions that are effectively present in the battery. Energy components can provide power indefinitely as long as fuel and oxygen are available.
