Scope of the Report

A methanol reforming Fuel Cell is a battery that uses methanol as fuel, converts methanol into hydrogen through a reforming reaction, and then reacts hydrogen with oxygen to generate electricity. Its reaction formula is:

CH3OH + H2O → CO2 + 3H2

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O + energy

Methanol reforming fuel cells have the advantages of high efficiency, low pollution, and easy storage and transportation, so they are widely used in drones, automobiles, ships and other fields. Compared with traditional fuel cells, methanol reforming fuel cells have higher energy density and longer service life. At the same time, methanol can be directly used as fuel without hydrogen storage and delivery, thereby reducing costs and safety risks.

According to data released by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, in December 2022, the production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in China was 653 and 607, respectively. In the whole year of 2022, the production and sales of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles was 3,626 and 3,367, a year-on-year increase of 105.4% and 112.8%, respectively. According to our Fuel Cell Research Center, by the end of 2022, the number of fuel cell vehicles in the world had reached 67,000 units, a year-on-year increase of 36.6%. Among them, the number of fuel cell vehicles in China was 12,682 units.
