Yuan Ze University is home to the YZU Fuel Cell Center. As YZU principal Chan Shih-hung explains, a fuel cell's main fuel is hydrogen, which is abundant in the natural world. When fed into the cell, it combines with oxygen to form water, and in the process chemical energy is converted into electrical energy.
