The presentation will introduce Polymer Electrolyte Membrane fuel cell technology and review various developments in relation to the need to cut global CO2 emissions by at least 80% (from 1990 levels) by 2050 to stabilise atmospheric CO2 at 450 ppm and keep global warming below 2°C. (This level of decarbonisation could require up to 95% decarbonisation of the road transport sector.) The Surrey and Sussex AGM will take place before the talk starts.
