Delivering all-day runtime in a notebook PC is a Holy Grail for battery manufacturers, PC OEMs, and fuel cell developers. Today, portable fuel cell pioneer PolyFuel announced that it just completed the fourth milestone of a five-step, multi-year development plan intended to kick-start the commercial market for such power supplies.
Versa Power Systems, Inc., a leading developer of environmentally friendly Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) that generate clean electricity in compact form for both mobile and stationary applications, today announced its SOFC technology was successfully integrated into an experimental test bed representative of a propulsion system for stealth surveillance vehicles under development by the U.S. Navy.
The Swedish ambassador, Stefan Noreén, today opened Morphic’s new Technology and Customer Center in Yokohama, Japan. The center will offer optimization of flow plates for fuel cells to customers in all Asian markets.
Pacific Fuel Cell Corp., a specialty component manufacturer for the fuel cell industry, announced today the placement of a mold-to-size purchase order by a leading fuel cell company. The purchase order covers calendar year 2008, with molding runs to occur at pre-determined intervals throughout the year.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of “Hydrogen as a Future Energy Carrier” to their offering.
Research and Markets has announced the addition of Cleantech: Current Status and Worldwide Outlook to their offering.
The world environmental testing equipment market has experienced steady growth in recent times because of the growth of alternative fuel technologies and rising demand from the Asia Pacific region. Vendors must maintain a global perspective since the sale of environmental testing equipment expects to increase across all regions, not just the Asia Pacific.
Like two ballroom dancers waltzing together, the two atoms of an oxygen molecule severed by a metal catalyst usually behave identically. But new research reveals that on a particular catalyst, split oxygen atoms act like a couple dancing the tango: one oxygen atom plants itself while the other shimmies away, probably with energy partially stolen from the stationary one.
Hybrid electric vehicles that run on both conventional gasoline and stored electricity can be no more than a stop gap until more sustainable technology is developed, according to researchers in France.
An energy materials research group in alkaline polymer fuel cells lead by Dr John Varcoe at the University of Surrey has been awarded £292k by the EPSRC to develop new low-temperature fuel cells which could lower the cost and increase the operation times of batteries used in everyday gadgets such as mobile phones and laptops. The EPSRC award to Surrey forms part of a larger £1.4m award to four UK universities.
