With an objective to increase the concentration on green projects and initiatives of the business leaders in Utah, the “Clean Tech Initiative” has been launched by the Utah Technology Council (UTC) that focuses on five distinct areas.
Sandia, The Boeing Company, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), Altergy Systems, Multiquip Inc., and others developed a novel mobile lighting system as a clean, efficient alternative to traditional technologies powered by diesel fuel generators. These small, portable lighting systems are used primarily by highway construction crews, airport maintenance personnel, and film crews.
The Hymera portable power generator from BOC is the first 150W hydrogen fuel-cell powered electricity generator on the market. It is a lightweight, clean and quiet off-grid power supply that is ideal for today’s high-tech, low energy technologies like LED floodlighting and for charging cordless tools on site. It is an environmentally-friendly alternative to conventional diesel or petrol powered generators and marks the start of a new age in off-grid power generation.
Three new complementary research projects will turn carbon from a pollutant into useful products that could help both industry and the environment.
In December 2009 Uhde and its subsidiary, Uhde Corporation of America in Bridgeville, USA, signed a global hydrogen alliance agreement with the American company, Praxair
Stacked sheets of graphene may be a promising material for capturing and storing hydrogen for future fuel-cell systems according to recent research at NIST and the University of Pennsylvania.
PowerChem Technology offers products and services to the geothermal industry. They provide customized products for treating brine, steam and cooling water systems. The products include cool water treatment, brine scale control treatment, brine and steam corrosion control treatment, plant engineering, and operating studies. The scale controlling programs are designed to protect geothermal equipment from plugging and deposits. These problems can reduce production and increase cleaning costs for the company.
Materials scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison have designed a way to harvest small amounts of waste energy and harness them to turn water into usable hydrogen fuel.
Danish industrial players have expressed a strong need for support in the process to push fuel cell and hydrogen technologies from the research and development stage into the commercial domain.
U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded $6.2 million in project funding to Ballard Power Systems under a four-year contract. Ballard Power Systems’ U.S. subsidiary, Ballard Material Products, was awarded $4.1 million for research to improve the durability of fuel cells. In addition, U.S. technology organizations that carry out fuel cell research with DOE funds will engage Ballard as sub-contractor.
