There are significant global environmental and supply issues with existing energy paths today. Global emission and fuel regulation, global fuel and power structure, energy security, and cost are driving new technology and non-conventional approaches.The fuel cell and direct sustainable electrochemical fuels such as hydrogen, methanol and ethanol, provide the promise of being one of the few long-term solutions to the improvement of energy efficiency, energy sustainability, energy security, reduction of greenhose gases and urban pollution. The fuel cell is an important energy conversion device in most clean energy pathways including those involving thermochemical processes.Technical progess as well as ivestments in fuel cells for different applications has been significant in recent years. The present world view is optimistic for fuel cell power generation and the status is presently at the field trial level and early commercialization stage moving into volume commercialization. Canada is one of the world leaders in the research and development of fuel cell and hydrogen technology, and is in an excellent position to exploit and benefit from this leadership.

目前，现有的能源途径存在重大的全球环境和供应问题。全球排放和燃料法规、全球燃料和电力结构、能源安全和成本正在推动新技术和非传统方法的发展。燃料电池和直接可持续电化学燃料（如氢气、甲醇和乙醇）有望成为改善能源效率、能源可持续性、能源安全、减少温室气体和城市污染的少数长期解决方案之一。燃料电池是包括热化学过程在内的大多数清洁能源途径中的重要能量转换装置，近年来，燃料电池在不同应用领域的技术进步和研究具有重要意义。目前，世界对燃料电池发电持乐观态度，目前处于现场试验阶段和早期商业化阶段，正在进入批量商业化。加拿大是燃料电池和氢技术研究和开发的世界领导者之一，并且处于开发和受益于这一领导地位的绝佳位置。
