Effects of climate change such as scorching heat waves and rising sea levels are no longer just a looming threat but a reality we face every day 1 . Greenhouse gas emissions from traditional energy sources, such as fossil fuels, are pushing our planet to the brink. In 2023, the European Union embraced a series of commission recommendations aimed at aligning the EU's climate, energy, transport, and taxation strategies to effectively curtail net greenhouse gas emissions by a minimum of 55 % by 2030. This initiative is poised to position the EU as the pioneering climate-neutral continent by the year 2050. The primary objective of the net zero is to achieve carbon neutrality by significantly reducing carbon emissions to a level that can be absorbed and stored sustainably by natural mechanisms and additional carbon dioxide removal methods, thereby ensuring a balanced atmospheric carbon footprint of zero. Presently, the energy sector is accountable for approximately three-quarters of greenhouse gas emissions, thus playing a pivotal role in mitigating the adverse impacts of climate change. Substituting environmentally damaging coal, gas, and oil-based power generation with renewable energy alternatives holds significant potential for significantly mitigating carbon emissions. Hence, shifting to sustainable energy sources offer a powerful solution in creating a cleaner and healthier future for next generations Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs) has been studied for years, as a promising clean energy technology due to its high efficiency, low operating temperature, and most importantly, zero carbon emissions. This technology is increasingly recognized as a valuable complement to battery electric vehicles (BEVs). While BEVs currently dominate the electric vehicle market, PEMFCs offer a viable alternative for applications where BEVs encounter limitations, such as in heavy-duty trucks. PEMFCs convert hydrogen as a chemical fuel directly into electricity by employing two electrochemical reactions: oxidation of hydrogen in the anode (Eq. 1) and reduction of oxygen in cathode (Eq. 2). H2 → 2H + + 2e -(anode)
