Fuel Cell Powered Supercar, Or Just A Supercar With Fuel Cell Range Extender?
First things first: This is not a methanol fuel cell powered car. This is a battery electric vehicle with a methanol fuel cell range extender.

As a response to the Danish government’s energy initiative published last week, the largest party in the country, The Social Democrats, has published its own initiative called “Denmark will once again be a green superpower.”
Today the Danish Ministry of Energy, Utilities and Climate has launched its energy initiative called “Energy — for a green Denmark” which is meant to support the goal of at least 50% of the country’s energy consumption to be supplied by renewable energy sources by 2030.
Whenever the issue of tax on passenger cars in Denmark comes up, those who believe in the numbers think it’s pure madness, while others simply don’t believe it. Well, now a bunch of number crunching wizards have found that most of this madness is indeed superfluous.
According to Ingeniøren, the latest projection of energy consumption in Denmark by the Danish Energy Agency shows there will be more electric cars on the roads in the country by 2030. However, although cars are generally becoming more fuel efficient, the use of fossil fuels in transport will continue to … [continued]
Ingeniøren reports that a new survey conducted by YouGov for the Danish Electric Car Alliance shows that 73% of Danes believe that their elected politicians should make special efforts to promote the sale of electric cars.
As the expiry of the previous support scheme for renewable energy in Denmark resulted in a significant expansion with land based wind energy in 2017, we hold our breath to see how the annual technology neutral wind and solar tenders for 2018 and 2019 will pan out in the country. While we wait we can look to Germany and see what happened there at its first attempt.
Big problems need big solutions. But big and effective solutions might not be that complicated. I had heard about devices that extract water from thin airm but I wondered if any industrial scale solutions were out there.
The climate observatory ASIM (Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor) is finally on its way to the International Space Station, ISS, after a year’s delay.
The German organization of car owners ADAC has for the first time compared the combined emission balance of all types of passenger cars in a major study. The result: There is no powertrain that generally has the best climate balance, and the electric car is not always particularly climate-friendly compared to the internal combustion powered car.
