Maritime transportation emits about 3% of global greenhouse gas, International Maritime Organization (IMO) aims to reduce shipping’s emissions by 50% with respect to 2008 levels. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are considered among the most promising clean technologies for decarbonizing the maritime sector. One of the challenges for commercial application of PEMFCs is their limited durability. The purpose of this thesis was to assess the most significant degradation mechanisms and operating conditions of the PEMFC in marine applications, including membrane and catalyst layer degradation during idle, start-stop cycles, and dynamic load cycles, and to build a model to forecast the lifetime.A semi-empirical approach was developed ...
