Stop-and-go driving can wear on your nerves, but it really does a number on the precious platinum that drives reactions in automotive fuel cells. Before large fleets of fuel-cell-powered vehicles can hit the road, scientists will have to find a way to protect the platinum, the most expensive component of fuel-cell technology, and to reduce the amount needed to make catalytically active electrodes.
Areva, the French energy company, has set its eyes on solar power production in India. The company that currently owns a 60 MW biomass power plant has announced its plans to start two new subsidiary companies to mobilize the required investment of $3 billion for installing the solar power plant.
Hydrogen is one of the most promising fuels of the future. Whether powered by wind or sun energy, electrolysis of water is the method of choice for producing hydrogen without emission of carbon dioxide. The character and properties of the hydrogen-producing catalyst, usually platinum, are of critical importance for the efficiency and cost of the electrocatalytic system.
The race for creating a portable power platform that is hydrogen-based moved forward at the Interbike International Trade Expo when SiGNa Chemistry Inc. went on to demonstrate its new range extender with ultra-high-performance levels.
