Fuel cell applications are stationary fuel cell applications (or stationary fuel cell power systems) and portable fuel cell applications (or portable fuel cell power systems). Stationary (not moving) fuel cell applications are either connected to the electric grid (distributed generation) to provide supplemental power and as emergency power system for critical areas, or installed as a grid-independent generator for on-site service. Portable (movable) fuel cell applications are either used as micropower in consumer electronic devices to provide power or as portable power in emergency power systems for critical areas.

Famous quotes containing the words fuel and/or cell:
“It is now many years that men have resorted to the forest for fuel and the materials of the arts: the New Englander and the New Hollander, the Parisian and the Celt, the farmer and Robin Hood, Goody Blake and Harry Gill; in most parts of the world, the prince and the peasant, the scholar and the savage, equally require still a few sticks from the forest to warm them and cook their food. Neither could I do without them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I turn and turn in my cell like a fly that doesn’t know where to die.”
—Antonio Gramsci (1891–1937)
