The electrochemical noise of a polymer membrane hydrogen-air fuel cell operating at different load currents was measured in serial experiments. Spectral power densities of the noise are shown to be divided into three regions. At frequencies greater than 3–10 Hz, the spectrum dependence has a constant slope of − 2 in the bilogarithmic coordinates. At frequencies 0.3–5 Hz, there is a horizontal plateau in which length is determined by the value of a load. At frequencies less than 0.3 Hz, the dependence of spectral power density has a slope of − 2. Medium-frequency plateau and high-frequency slope of spectral power densities of the noise were approximated by model RC circuits. The values of Faradic resistance and double-layer capacitance connected in parallel were obtained from the electrochemical impedance data. At load voltages higher 0.5 V, the height of the plateau was shown to be proportional to the 2.68 power of the load current value.
