Global Defense Fuel Cells Market to Grow at a CAGR of 8.8%, 2017-2021 with Protonex, Ultracell, Neah Power Systems, General Motors & SFC Energy Dominating – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Global
Defense Fuel Cells Market 2017-2021” report has been added to Research
and Markets’ offering.

The global defense fuel cells market to grow at a CAGR of 8.8% during
the period 2017-2021.

The report, Global Defense Fuel Cells Market 2017-2021, has been
prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry
experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects
over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key
vendors operating in this market.

One trend in the market is adoption of fuel cells to decrease dependency
on imported oil. Fuel cell chemistries, such as lithium-oxygen and
microbial fuel cells, are gradually gaining traction and ensure high
energy density levels comparable to fossil fuels. These characteristics
make them ideal for robust transportation-related energy requirements.
Since fuel cells are actively used in military transportation, research
activities may be initiated for short to mid-term needs.

According to the report, one driver in the market is improved
performance with high torque and low revolutions. Despite the limited
availability of infrastructure for fuel cells compared to fossil-fuel
powered drivetrains, fuel cells project a higher efficiency of about 60%
to 80%. As conventional vehicles do not carry out complete fuel
combustion, the efficiency of the vehicle drops compared to the
conventional IC engine. The diesel engine utilizes the fuel present in
the vehicle to generate torque, leading to a lower number of revolutions
compared to those vehicles that operate on fuel cell technology.
