Suzuki Burgman Fuel Cell Scooter Will Soon Hit The Roads
If everything goes well, we'll see Suzuki Motors' hydrogen fuel cell scooter on our roads soon. The company has recently announced that the Burgman has passed vital approval and European certifications.
How to Produce Hydrogen From an Aluminum Soda Can and Water
Here's how you can produce hydrogen to power cars, homes, or even toys. Hydrogen is the cleanest energy carrier in the universe, and is...

Electrolysis: Obtaining hydrogen from water: The Basis for a Solar-Hydrogen Economy
This project involves a fascinating experiment in electrochemistry that illustrates several important energy related...
Iodine Fuel Cell Catalyst More Efficient [and Cheaper!] than Platinum
If hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are ever going to make it mainstream, one thing that's definitely going to be needed is a cheaper fuel...
Cheapest Way to Get Hydrogen: the Photoelectrochemical Diode
Penn State researchers have found a cheaper method of producing hydrogen from water by the same old effect of electrolysis aided by the Sun's rays. They do not use classic solar cells, because these are expensive, but made a nanotechnology-based solar cell, called photoelectrochemical diode, that is simplistically said on the bottom of the water holding recipe.
First "Green" Black Cabs Powered by Fuel Cells on the Streets of London
Maybe the next time you visit London you'll wonder what has changed and what has remained the same in the old city. Next you'll find yourself taking a cab and finding the answer: it will still be the same black cab, only based on hydrogen fuel cells.
How Bacterial Hydrogen Fuel Cells Work
"When bacteria are placed in the anode chamber of a specially-designed fuel cell that is free of oxygen, they attach to an electrode. Because...
Artificial Leaf Generates Hydrogen, Even in Contaminated Water
Daniel Nocera, previously of MIT and now Harvard, once called the artificial leaf “one of the Holy Grails of science,” but what if it...
Hyundai’s Hydrogen Car Sets New Land-Speed Record
A new record was just set for hydrogen fuel cell-powered land speed. The Hyundai Tucson Fuel Cell, which is available in the United States, set...
Daniel Nocera's New Catalyst Produces 200 Percent More Efficient Electrolyzers
Scientists have recently discovered that, among other sources, still water can generate renewable energy. Using an electrolyzer, water is broken into hydrogen and oxygen. In this process, catalysts are needed for oxygen production, most of which are not cheap, nor environment-friendly.
