Fuel cell is one of the wide spread scientific fields with a variety of applications. It’s industrial, economical, and social effects are enormous and unsimilar. It is obvious that any organization or company whose interest is directed toward using this technology has to focus its activities on this field. The company has to get and apply this technology according to its defined duties. Now a day, in Iran, these activities in the field of fuel cell technology are mostly of investigation type and include special cases such as AFC, PEM, and PAFC. The organizations and universities which are working in this field are as follows:
- Iran Renewable energy Organization
- Tarbiat Modares University
- Sharif University of Technology
- Iran Science and Technology University
- Khajenasir University
- Research center of Jihad Esfahan

Since minor and unfocused activities will not lead us toward fuel cell technology, it is essential to achieve to a unique policy for collimating these activities with resource management strategies. For these reasons and also developing of fuel cell technology in Iran, the “Fuel Cell Steering Committee” was established in February, 2002.
