Abstract In Viet Nam, there is a lot of electrical shutdown occurred at night time due to the shortage of electricity. Many people utilizes diesel oil power plant which generates a lot of pollutions such as noise and smelly toxic gas. In an effort to provide green energy source which is friendly to environment, we tried to develop a stand alone power plant providing 2000 watt. This power should be enough for cooking, air conditioner, lighting in a single home. A compact hydroelectric fuel cell system is designed for household power plant which can connect to national electrical network in Vietnam.The most expensive components are PEM if a TCP (Toray Carbon Paper gas diffusion layer); a Nafion proton transporter had to be used. In order to provide reasonable and acceptable cost, innovation had been made in the development of the replacement of TCP for gas diffusion material, the replacement of Nafion for PEM and the replacement of graphite for bipolar plates.
