The Viritech Apricale: Britain’s own hydrogen-powered hypercar

Suggestively-named UK company Viritech has announced that it’s making an altogether different kind of male enhancement supplement than we’d have expected, in the form of a hydrogen-powered hypercar called the Apricale.Continue ReadingCategory: Automoti… Continue reading The Viritech Apricale: Britain’s own hydrogen-powered hypercar

Infinium’s electrofuels: An instant zero-carbon path for big transport

It’s going to take decades to get aviation, shipping and long-haul transport down to zero emissions. The technology is embryonic right now, and some of these big vehicles are still in service 30 years after they’re first delivered, so even once the tec… Continue reading Infinium’s electrofuels: An instant zero-carbon path for big transport

Segway announces ultra-futuristic Apex H2 hydrogen-powered motorcycle

Segway-Ninebot has rather sensationally announced that it’s building a hydrogen fuel cell sportsbike – and boy does this thing look like it glitched its way out of Cyberpunk 2077, complete with a highly improbable steering design and an amazing price.C… Continue reading Segway announces ultra-futuristic Apex H2 hydrogen-powered motorcycle

Artificial photosynthesis device improves its own efficiency over time

Devices that mimic the natural process of photosynthesis, in which plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into energy, could one day help us tackle a number of environmental issues. Scientists have now demonstrated a new type of technolog… Continue reading Artificial photosynthesis device improves its own efficiency over time

Brazilian green H2 plant to (briefly) be world’s biggest CO2 reducer

Singaporean/Australian company Enegix Energy is moving forward with plans to build a huge clean hydrogen plant on the northeast coast of Brazil. The US$5.4-billion Base One project is intended to transform solar and wind power into more than 600 millio… Continue reading Brazilian green H2 plant to (briefly) be world’s biggest CO2 reducer

Yanmar prototype fuel cell boat gets tested on the water

Last year, Yanmar announced that it was looking at developing a maritime system using hydrogen fuel cells from Toyota’s Mirai production line. Now a passenger boat prototype has hit the water off the coast of Kunisaki in the Oita Prefecture in Japan.Co… Continue reading Yanmar prototype fuel cell boat gets tested on the water

Glow of “cosmic web” filaments directly imaged for the first time

On a scale that’s hard to fathom, the universe is made up of a “cosmic web” of hydrogen filaments that feed and form galaxies. Now, astronomers have made the first direct observations of light from this web, by staring at a patch of sky with a powerful… Continue reading Glow of “cosmic web” filaments directly imaged for the first time

Most of Mars’ missing water may still be there – underground

Mars may currently be a dusty desert, but that wasn’t always the case – a growing body of evidence points to the Red Planet being much bluer in its ancient past. Where all that water went is a key question, and now researchers at JPL and Caltech have p… Continue reading Most of Mars’ missing water may still be there – underground

H2Pro’s dollar-a-kilo green hydrogen: a 20-year leap in clean energy?

Israeli company H2Pro claims its highly efficient water-splitting technology will deliver green hydrogen at less than US$1 per kilogram before 2030. That’s a big deal; it would represent a 60-80 percent drop in green H2 prices, down to a level where it… Continue reading H2Pro’s dollar-a-kilo green hydrogen: a 20-year leap in clean energy?
