Bac2's technology can drastically reduce the cost of fuel cells

At the Fuel Cell Pavilion at the Hannover Messe 2008, British company Bac2 has announced that it's introducing blank bipolar plates for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells made from their proprietary polymer, called ElectroPhen. This allows easy prototyping because they're easier to produce and thus 30 percent cheaper than metal plates. According to Bac2, the plates exceed the U. S. Department of Energy specifications for use in automotive applications. Bac2 also claims that material has a raw state conductivity one billion times ... Read more →

Hydrogen storage gets a boost 3 years ago on Autoblog Green

As we've all been made well aware, one of the reasons hydrogen-powered vehicles remain on the horizon of power-train technology is the absence of a practical, low-cost, high-capacity storage solution for such a combustible fuel. Until now, most auto manufacturers have resorted to using compressed ...
