WHY MVTG Fuel Cell is Superior then the Competition:
MVTG Fuel Cell (MRFC Technology) • Liquid fuel-based fuel cell stacks • No polymeric membrane • No flow-field plates (smaller and lighter) • Cylindrical design • Improved lifetime • No platinum catalyst • Anticipated 60-80% cost reduction • Demonstrated highest reported current density for a mixed-reactant system
Conventional Fuel Cells (Power Plug & Ballard) x H2-based fuel cell stacks x Expensive polymeric membrane (15-68% of cost) x Heavy/bulky flow-field plates (10-25% of cost) x Flat-plate design x Lifetime challenges x Expensive platinum catalyst
