The core of each of these individual cells is a polymer membrane, with a platinum-based catalyst on both sides of the membrane. Because the exhaust system only has to handle water vapor, it is made of weight-saving plastic. An outer skin made from carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) encases the inner aluminum shell.

Their outer skin is made from aluminum-coated polymer and this in turn brings weight advantages. The stack comprises more than 300 individual cells; the core of each of these individual cells is a polymer membrane, with a platinum-based catalyst on both sides of the membrane. The tanks can store around five kilograms (11.0
