Thanks!! <br /> <br />We were looking at Installing a fuel cell "farm" in california during the height of the electricity "crunch", to provide power to our shopping mall, in lieu of blackouts. <br /> <br />Which was where I first became aquainted with the reality that the fuel cell is a high power, rather than a low power, generating means. And is extremely efficient in operation <br /> <br />The "key" is in being able to utilize All of the energy produced, and reviewing the info, the entire "cycle" is 89% efficient for Proton Exchange type, of which roughly half the power output is electric, the other half heat. <br /> <br />As it turned out, we had no conveiniant use for the heat, which soured the overall economics, beyond reason. <br /> <br />But, it got me to thinking...."which industry makes great use of heat"? h'mmmm "steam"? <br /> <br />It would certainly be interesting
