If we asked you to think of a device that converts a chemical reaction into electricity, you’d probably say we were thinking of a battery. That’s true, but there is …read more Continue reading A Brief History of Fuel Cells
German automotive supplier Mahle has been hard at work on next-gen electric drive systems, and it’s also been exploring other critical components to help make vehicular electrification a more viable reality. At September’s IAA Transportation show, it r… Continue reading Biomimetic EV fan goes full ‘birds of prey’ to silence efficiency
Ever since Hyundai’s zero-emissions N Vision 74 concept car first appeared on the scene a few years ago, car lovers have been desperate to see the thing move from prototype to product. Their wait may soon be over.Continue ReadingCategory: Automotive, T… Continue reading Hyundai’s wild sci-fi sports car slated for production
The company that broke a Guinness World Record this year with its all-hydrogen train has just announced another world first. Stadler Rail has developed a fleet of train cars that can run on either hydrogen or battery power for branch rail services.Cont… Continue reading Hydrogen or battery? World-first train glides along on either
As hydrogen-powered vehicles continue to evolve, their use will become as niche as that of some current land-, sea-, and air-transportation methods, such as a new agreement that will see helicopters powered by the green fuel used for organ transport.Co… Continue reading Hydrogen helicopters to be called into service for organ delivery
Researchers have prototyped sensor-packed robot bugs that mimic biological digestive systems to meet energy needs, employ a Janus interface for a steady supply of nutrients and move on the water’s surface like a water strider.Continue ReadingCategory: … Continue reading Water-skimming Ocean-of-Things bugbots run on bacteria-powered fuel cells
MIT scientists have discovered an intriguing new way to produce hydrogen fuel, using just soda cans, seawater and coffee grounds. The team says the chemical reaction could be put to work powering engines or fuel cells in marine vehicles that suck in se… Continue reading Seawater-slurping hydrogen reactor able to power a sub for 30 days
Swiss clean-energy aviation startup JEKTA has announced a partnership with fuel-cell powertrain developer ZeroAvia to extend the flight range and payload capacity of an upcoming electric amphibious passenger aircraft called the PHA-ZE 100.Continue Read… Continue reading 370-mile hydrogen-electric seaplane set to clean up island hopping
Sirius Aviation, in partnership with BMW Designworks, has today offered the first look at the inside and out of its upcoming CEO Jet, a winged eVTOL with 28 ducted fans that’s powered by hydrogen fuel cells for a range of 1,150 miles per trip.Continue … Continue reading Liquid-hydrogen-powered eVTOL makes a dazzling world debut
While most ebikes on the road today will come with a battery pack, some are riding down the hydrogen fuel-cell cycle path. HydroRide not only has fuel-cell ebikes available, but also a compact refill station to top up H2 canisters.Continue ReadingCateg… Continue reading Hydrogen fuel-cell ebikes can be ‘recharged’ in seconds
