Electrochemistry Question HELP?

Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of fuel cells over conventional power plants in producing electricitypertaining to electrochemistry

Answer:

fuel cells are very useful as power sources in remote locations, such as spacecraft, remote weather stations, large parks, rural locations, and in certain military applications. A fuel cell system running on hydrogen can be compact and lightweight, and have no major moving parts. Because fuel cells have no moving parts and do not involve combustion, in ideal conditions they can achieve up to 99.9999% reliability .This equates to around one minute of down time in a two year period.
