PEM FUEL CELL STACK

A fuel cell stack comprises two of an interface plate, two or more of an air plate, two or more of a reaction cell, at least one of a fuel-air bipolar plate, and at least one of a fuel-coolant bipolar plate defining a cooling surface. The two of an interface plate, the two or more of an air plate, the two or more of a reaction cell, the at least one of a fuel-air bipolar plate, and the at least one of a fuel-coolant bipolar plate are arranged to provide a reaction cell to cooling surface ratio within the fuel cell stack of from 1:1 to 10:1.
