Summary
Fuel cells offer a highly efficient way to generate electrical energy. Therefore they may be an important element in a future energy supply structure. However, the operation and control of fuel cell systems is quite demanding. This contribution illustrates typical challenges for control of fuel cell systems in different power ranges and outlines solution approaches.
