It seems to be a semantic distinction. Likely done to distance it from hydrogen fuel cells since these don’t require infrastructure for the storage and transport of elemental hydrogen.
Yeah, fuel cells are very different since they react the hydrogen. I think these batteries only use hydrogen bonds to carry electrons. Or to positively charge the anode and create current? However that works? I’m not a chemist or electrical engineer lol
It sounds like they’re a hybrid between hydrogen fuel cells and a traditional battery. Here’s the most digestible explanation I could find of how they work, but I can’t really speak to the quality of the source. https://www.solarkobo.com/post/proton-batteries
