Abstract: Several technologies are being used in distributed generation applications with variable degree of success. Among those are: wind turbines, small-scale hydropower plants, biomass, microturbines, photovoltaic arrays, and fuel cells. A fuel cell is a device that converts the chemical energy of fuel to electric energy. New improvements in the fuel cell technology significantly meliorated the technical characteristics of this technology. Environmental friendliness, practically noise free operation, and very high efficiency make fuel cells a challenger on the future electricity markets.
