[PAFC, MCFC, SOFC, AFC, PEMFC, Zn/MnO=2-battery, MnO sub 2 /H sub 2 -battery] %XThe possibly large influence of fuel cell technology on several energy conversion and environmental aspects of the future is discussed. Solar energy and other renewable energy sources must have electrochemical storage facilities. Nuclear power can be used efficiently to electrolize water. The replacement of combustion engines in vehicles by fuel cell systems operating on hydrogen is the only way of reducing the increase of CO{sub 2} in the atmosphere if the greenhouse effect is becoming a threat. The fuel cell projects related to the manned space vehicles can provide many important spin-off's for accumulator designs and battery technology.
