Preface
The purpose of this book is to give an overview of hydrogen energy engineering, especially from a Japanese perspective. After decades of research, development, and demonstration, the era of practical fuel cells and related hydrogen technologies has just begun. Commercial products are now available for daily life in various applications such as residential stationary fuel cells for powering houses and small businesses, and in fuel cell vehicles. There is a steady acceleration in research activities directed towards the wider application of these technologies. Besides such
