BMW advances hydrogen fuel cell road testing in Europe

BMW Group has initiated European road trials of its hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, marking a significant step in evaluating the ...
An accurate and efficient approach is required to identify the unknown parameters of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) mathematical model for a robust design of any energy system considering SOFC. This ...
Life requires energy. Energy is one of humanity’s most pressing concerns. Increasing energy demand, regional constraints, and the serious environmental consequences of traditional energy sources ...
Researchers have developed a new catalyst design capable of pushing the projected fuel cell catalyst lifespans to 200,000 hours. The research marks a significant step toward the widespread adoption of ...
One of the most ambitious projects in the new frontier of electric aviation is the Flying Fuel Cell concept, a hydrogen-electric hybrid system being actively pursued by several European aerospace ...
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 ...
Scientists have developed a fuel cell that uses microbes in soil to produce electricity. The device can power underground sensors for tasks like monitoring moisture or detecting touch, without needing ...
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 ...
Fuel cells powered with the metal could provide a new source of electric power that's far more energy-dense than lithium-ion batteries. A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one day ...
Hydrogen fuel cells, which power some electric cars, pack far more energy per weight than lithium-ion batteries. The devices also show promise for decarbonizing aviation, shipping, and trucking. But ...
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, ...
