چکیده
Platinum Metals Rev., 2006, 50, (1), 38–45 The Ninth Grove Fuel Cell Symposium and exhibition was held at the prestigious Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster, London, from 4th to 6th October 2005. This biannual event is now the largest fuel cell gathering in Europe, this one attracting 480 delegates from 38 countries (1, 2). Some 54 papers were presented, and 186 posters were displayed. A further 760 people attended the associated trade exhibition, and a half-day demonstration of fuel cell vehicles and technology was held in Trafalgar Square. The latter attracted considerable public and media attention. Because of the wide range of fuel cell types and applications is now available, this article is restricted mainly to those associated with the utilisation of the platinum group metals.
