Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) are emerging as a promising alternative to traditional internal combustion engines and battery electric vehicles. With advancements in technology and growing ...
Ah, alternative fuels. Aren't they the best? It all started with a hybrid car, which led to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and now battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) are dominating the scene.
Fuel cells are not some novel new technology. In fact, most history books credit the invention of the fuel cell to Welsh chemist and physicist William Grove, who, in the late 1830s and early 1840s, ...
Fuel cells produce clean electricity on-site, eliminating the need for transmission lines and offering protection against power outages. They have significant environmental advantages, processing ...
In 1945, the Navy Bureau of Aeronautics inaugurated a program to investigate the prospective use of liquid nitrogen as a rocket propellant. However, it wasn't until 1962, when John F. Kennedy issued a ...
Fuel cells enter the big leagues as Intelligent Energy unveils its 200-kW IE-DRIVE HD system for heavy vehicles. Billed as the "first-of-its-kind" multi-input, multi-output DC-DC converter, the new ...
The 10-bus pilot is part of the agency's efforts to transition to a climate-friendly fleet. But it has attracted criticism from some environmentalists. Employees with SEPTA and other transit agencies ...
worst fear is getting caught in a car fire. A lot of safety equipment--like your firesuit and fire extinguisher--is designed to protect you in the event of a fire, but your fuel cell is one of the few ...
Scientists at the Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology have created a fuel cell catalyst made from platinum and magnesium. The new catalyst, which uses the world’s first ...
Honda debuts its fuel-cell-powered big rig at ACT Expo in Las Vegas. The fuel cells are made by a joint venture with General Motors. It’s all part of Honda’s hydrogen business strategy “to increase ...
What if the future of aviation didn’t rely on heavy lithium-ion batteries or complex hydrogen systems, but instead on a fuel as simple and abundant as sodium? At MIT, researchers are turning this bold ...
