One of our wonderful regular commenters, “neroden,” recently dropped a very interesting link into the comments of an article about Hyundai’s apparent shift in focus to battery-electric cars. As he prefaced it: There’s actually a long list of problems with fuel cell cars. From someone who actually built fuel cell cars: http://ssj3gohan.tweakblogs.net/blog/11470/why-fuel-cell-cars-dont-work-part-1 … [continued]
Originally published on EV Obsession. In an announcement that should surprise nobody who has truly been paying attention, Samsung SDI has apparently decided to close its hydrogen fuel cell division and focus new development resources on electric vehicle batteries. The writing’s been on the wall for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles for … [continued]
Editor’s note: If you haven’t noticed, we don’t write much about hydrogen fuel cells here on CleanTechnica. Quite frankly, it’s got some big hurdles that we’re not so sure it can overcome — at least, no time soon (and we need clean transportation to roll out soon). Nonetheless, this … [continued]
The green hydrogen economy of the future is branching out in new directions, the latest example being a new microbe-based food protein.
If all goes according to plan, by 2027 Ballard Power Systems will be operating its new fuel cell factory in Texas at the 3-gigawatts level.
Australia and the US are among those foreseeing that green hydrogen will kick fossil fuels out of the global hydrogen supply chain.
The results are aligned with what’s obvious to anyone who has done bottom-up estimates with realistic perspectives on batteries and hydrogen.
In today’s news that makes you go hmmm.… A couple of recent news items from some well-known organizations caught my eye, not just because they are both working on hydrogen fuel cell motorcycle projects, but also because the names of both institutions have a certain cachet in the tech world … [continued]
For several years I’ve been iterating The Short List of Climate Actions That Will Work. The work of organizations like Mark Z. Jacobson’s Stanford team around energy and Carbon Drawdown’s around everything are excellent in different ways, but also indigestible to most people. The short list really is that. It’s … [continued]
The US green hydrogen industry gets a leg up from rare bipartisan legislation aimed at cutting costs and increasing production.
