If we are to understand why fuel cells have been used only very little so far and to predict what will be their most favourable application in the future, then we must know something about the economics of their operation and compare this with the economics of other forms of energy conversion. In this chapter we shall try to evaluate the economic factors of fuel cell operation and make some attempt at comparison with its competitors, although this will not be very satisfactory since any costs chosen at the time of writing may be quite wrong by the time this book is read. In fact, of course, the whole field of economics is subject to this uncertainty and this must be borne in mind throughout the chapter.
