Abstract
Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that promise a more efficient use of fossil fuels. The present feasibility study describes the operation of fuel cells and shows their potential benefits to the DSN. The authors describe the current research effort in this field and point out the major technical problems which still remain. Because of these major problems and because of DOE funding uncertainties, the authors conclude that fuel cells will probably not become commercially viable until the early 1990s.
