Abstract

The development of knowledge-intensive innovations is seen as a means to address issues related to the depletion of natural resources. The study aims to identify the emphases and mechanisms related to Fuel Cells (FC) and consequently Technology Transfer (TT), from a systematic review applied at Scopus for the period from 2010 to November 2020. Bibliometric analysis it gathered 37 articles, and the results showed that China, USA and South Korea are countries that promote the development of CT&I directed to the (FC). In addition, the literary reports on (FC) denote priority interests in studies on catalysts and solid oxide fuel cells in a broad spectrum of evaluation aimed at lowering costs. In contrast, literary production related to Technology Transfer converges to highlight economic feasibility studies, and to establish an understanding of the present aspects of Technology Transfer.
