Saasteeton
Polttoainekenno ei saastuta ympäristöä.Sähkökemiallisen reaktion kautta sen sijaan, että se käyttää polttoa (bensiini, diesel) tai energiavarastoa (akkua) -suurintäyteisintä CO2-liuosta,perinteistä polttokaasua. ja pöly. Kuten edellä mainittiin, polttoainekennottuottavat vain vettä ja lämpöä .Jos vetyä tuotetaan uusiutuvilla energialähteillä (valosähköpaneelit, tuulivoiman tuotanto jne.),koko kiertoprosessi on prosessi, joka ei täysin tuota haitallisia päästöjä.
Ei kohinaa
Polttoainekenno käy hiljaa ja melu on vain noin 55 dB, mikä vastaa ihmisten normaalin keskustelun tasoa. Tämä tekee polttoainekennosta sopivan sisäkäyttöön tai paikkoihin, joissa melua on rajoitettu ulkona.

Inthe1960s,hydrogenfuelcellshavebeensuccessfullyusedintheaerospacefield.The"Apollo"spacecraftthattravelsbetweenspaceandtheearthisequippedwithsuchasmallandlarge-capacitydevice.Afterenteringthe1970s,aspeoplecontinuedtomasteravarietyofadvancedhydrogenproductiontechnologies,hydrogenfuelcellsweresoonusedinpowergenerationandautomobiles.
Largepowerstations,whetherhydropower,thermalpowerornuclearpower,sendthegeneratedelectricitytothepowergrid,andthepowergriddeliversittousers.However,duetothedifferentloadsofdifferentpowerusers,thepowergridsometimespresentsapeakandsometimesatrough,whichwillleadtopoweroutagesorvoltageinstability.Inaddition,about70%ofthecombustionenergyoftraditionalthermalpowerplantsisconsumedinhugeequipmentsuchasboilersandsteamturbinegenerators,anditconsumesalotofenergyandemitsalotofharmfulsubstancesduringcombustion.Theuseofhydrogenfuelcellpowergenerationistodirectlyconvertthechemicalenergyofthefuelintoelectricalenergywithoutburning.Theenergyconversionratecanreach60%to80%,andithaslowpollutionandlownoise.Thedevicecanbelargeorsmall,anditisveryflexible.
