Abstract Fuel cell is an electricity generating device that converts chemical energy stored in the fuel and oxidizing agent directly into electrical energy. It does not pass through the thermal engine process, so it has high efficiency without being inhibited by the Carnot cycle. Nowadays, it has become a new electricity generating technology which many developed countries compete to develop. In this paper, the fuel cell's classification, working principle, survey of the development and its future tendency will be generally introduced.
