Low temperature fuel cells with hydrogen and oxygen as the reactants are well-suited as a power source of an air-independent propulsion system in a submarine. Their higher energy density, noiseless operation, absence of polluting gases and low waste heat as a consequence of the favourable efficiency are advantageous compared with conventional systems. Depending on the storage capacity required, it is possible to obtain energy densities which clearly surpass those of high temperature electrochemical batteries like sodium/sulfur. Results of the current development are reported and the application potential is discussed
