Really, all good fuels are rich in hydrogen, if only they didn’t have those nasty carbons attached to them. Pure hydrogen may just be the perfect fuel, as it emits nothing more than water upon combustion. While hydrogen can be burned an engine, it is finding […]

So, being efficient means less money spent on them, and more market share for hydrogen. SOFCs (solid oxide fuel cell) are a type of hydrogen fuel cell that use solid (not liquid) electrolyte to do their job, while being much more efficient.
