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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
For decades, scientists trying to build better catalysts have relied on a single guiding principle: there is one sweet spot, ...
Engineers developed a fuel cell that offers more than three times as much energy per pound compared to lithium-ion batteries. Powered by a reaction between sodium metal and air, the device could be ...
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, ...
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 ...
