Ford is focused on lightweighting as a key enabling technology for lowering fuel consumption in combustion-engined vehicles (ICE) and for extending the range—and the size—of battery electric vehicles (EVs). A fundamental theme is fuel efficiency for everyone; key to delivering on that is lightweighting. —Bill Ford Jr.

Fuel cells, which directly convert the chemical energy from fuel into electricity, have been recognized as electrocatalysts for PEMFCs. But due to the harsh acidic environment and high oxidation potential required for PEMFC cathode operation, few materials are stable enough to be considered as ORR electrocatalysts for PEMFCs.
