Plug Power Inc., a leader in providing clean, reliable energy solutions, has been selected for a $2.5 million award from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to modify electric tow tractor ground equipment to function with GenDrive hydrogen fuel cells in airport applications.
A team of Arizona State University engineering students finished in eighth place among 35 teams that competed recently in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers’ Chem-E-Car national championship.
HyperSolar, the developer of a breakthrough technology to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water, today announced that it has jointly filed a patent application with the University of California, Santa Barbara (“UCSB”) for the “protection and stability of electroactive units used for production of fuels and chemicals.” This invention could dramatically reduce the cost of fuel cells, an important source clean energy.
Ballard Power Systems today announced the commissioning of a 1.1-megawatt ClearGen™ fuel cell system installed at the Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A., Inc. (TMS) sales and marketing headquarters campus in Torrance, California. Powered by Ballard's proprietary proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells, the ClearGen™ system enables Toyota to satisfy peak and mid-peak power needs using electricity from either the clean energy fuel cell system or from the power grid.
Researchers at the University of Surrey have come up with an efficient and low-cost alternative to produce electricity. According to them, a by-product obtained during the manufacture of biofuels can be used to power microbial fuel cells. This latest research could pave the way to design self-powered tools. The researchers presented their study at the Autumn Conference of Society for General Microbiology.
Ballard Power Systems, a provider of clean energy fuel cell products for optimizing power systems, has received initial purchase orders for 102 fuel cell power generation systems. The products are to be deployed in telecom networks across Southeast Asia.
Pike Research’s new report titled ‘Fuel Cells Annual Report 2012’ has predicted that the market for fuel cells used in the transport, portable and stationary sectors will achieve a total value of $15.7 billion by 2017. However, a number of issues must be resolved for achieving this figure.
The international fuel cell sector is growing swiftly and showed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 83% during 2009ƒ{2011. Nevertheless, it is still small in comparison with its clean energy peers such as solar and wind.
The AREVA Group has won the call for tenders launched by La Croix Valmer city (South East of France) for the supply of an energy storage system.
A research team from UNED has devised a technique to fabricate a fuel cell component that enables surpassing the power target set by the US Department of Energy for 2017.
