This paper will discuss the use of fuel cells in place of internal combustion engines in automobiles. First the paper will discuss the technology behind fuel cells, providing a little history followed by how the fuel cell actually works. Some common fuel cells will also be identified. Next, advantages of fuel cells will be discussed touching on both environmental and economical benefits. Then the paper will analyze current progress in the field

Figure 1. Sir Grove [1] outlining the work of some companies and also providing the reader with some of the shortcomings of fuel cell technology. Finally, the future of this technology will be presented accompanied by some final recommendations.
