The Fuel Cell Commercialization Conference of Japan (FCCJ) revised in 2011 a part of the target performance, durability, and cost of fuel cells for transportation application based on the latest technical data and knowledge obtained from the vehicle tests in the public thoroughfare and the simple systems to be expected in the commercialization stage. FCCJ also updated a methodology for testing membrane-electrode assemblies (MEAs) and its materials: electrolyte membranes and electrocatalysts. This revision is intended to assist the development of materials for industry, university, and research institutes from practicality, simplicity, and convenience points of view. The purpose of this paper is to describe the revised targets and the updated evaluation methods with the background technical information related to fuel cell vehicles (FCVs).
