Fuel-cells create electricity via a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, much like a miniature electric power plant. A single fuel-cell generates less than a single volt of electricity, so many cells are stacked in a series connection -- a "fuel-cell stack" -- to produce enough voltage to power a car. 1, record 1, English, - fuel%2Dcell%20hybrid%20vehicle
