This review introduces the concept of direct H2O2 fuel cells and discusses merits these systems in comparison with other ‘clean-energy’ fuels. Through electrochemical methods, can be generated from environmentally benign energy sources such as wind solar. It also produces only water oxygen when it is utilised a cell, making fully reversible system. The methods for production are discussed here well recent research aimed at increasing efficiency power cells.
