Audio of Larry Burns speech to the National Hydrogen Association
2008-04-20 03:58:00 A couple of weeks ago, GM VP for Research and Development Larry Burns spoke to the National Hydrogen Association. The focus of his talk was to encourage energy companies to get moving with deploying hydrogen filling stations to support a fleet fuel cell vehicles. GM, Toyota and Honda were all at the NHA conference and the three - along with Daimler - have all indicated their confidence in the efficiency, effectiveness, and durability of fuel cell technology. Burns acknowledged it will take several generations of the technology with increased production volumes to get to a point where it is as affordable as today's powertrains. However, it's difficult for automakers to justify building cars if energy companies won't open retail filling stations. In order to make its Project Driveway program happen, GM had to purchase hydrogen fueling systems to support the 100 Chevy Equinox fuel cell vehicles. Burns called on the industry to roll out 40 stations within the three counties of Los An...

Jack Nicholson driving a hydrogen car ? in 1978
2008-04-16 23:16:00 Here's a blast from the past.Jack is one of the few celebrities that BMW hasn't given a Hydrogen 7 to for a few days. Maybe that's because Mr. Nicholson isn't impressed with hydrogen technology in 2008. Why wouldn't he be impressed? Well, he he was cruising the streets of Hollywood using (somewhat) similar technology thirty years ago. The Chevy in question has been modified to burn hydrogen in an ICE instead of gasoline and, for extra green points, the hydrogen was made using solar power. Pay attention to how hopeful Nicholson sounds when he talks about how the political world would change if we shifted from gasoline to hydrogen. Have we made any progress in the last three decades?Watch the video after the jump. Thanks to Nick for the tip![Source: YouTube]

Improvements in hydrogen generator technology
2008-04-14 12:19:00 Author: Groshan FabiolaThe new generation of hydrogen generators comes with extremely high purity devices, that are safe and that present no danger to the environment. They are the best alternative to gas cylinders, and they are simple to use anywhere. The hydrogen generator just needs to be plugged in the electrical supply and it is ready to go.The hydrogen generator need of course a source of distilled water, or just water at some models, to produce hydrogen, because it separates the hydrogen from the oxygen in the water, thus producing highly pure hydrogen for weeks.These hydrogen generators can generate hydrogen that is 99.99..% pure, giving over 1000 cc/min, and they do not require changing their cylinders. The safety of the hydrogen generators has been certified.How the hydrogen generator works may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, for example some models use a solid polymer electrolyte to separate oxygen from hydrogen, which makes them more safe than other models that u...

The Israeli car that can makes its own hydrogen fuel
2008-04-07 10:29:00 Israeli scientists have invented an exceptional system that can produce Hydrogen inside a car by means of common metals such as Aluminum and Magnesium. The system can solve all of the barriers associated with the manufacturing, transporting and storing of hydrogen to be used in cars. When it becomes commercial in a few years time, the system will be included in ordinary cars that will cost almost the same as existing conventional cars to run, and will be completely emission free.While Bush urges Americans to cut back on the use of oil in face of the lately surge in prices, more and more people looks for more feasible alternatives to the use of petroleum as the main fuel for the automotive industry. Scientist at Weizmann Institute, have recently found a way to use pure Zinc to produce Hydrogen using solar power. Now, another solution has been developed by an Israeli company called Engineuity.

BMW Hydrogen 7 Photo Gallery
2008-04-05 11:41:00 Autoblog has a pretty cool story on the BMW Hydrogen 7. I remember when we started our BMW related blog, that one of our first stories were on the BMW Hydrogen 7, with California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger taking a picture next to it. Things have changed a lot since then. The green initiative became even more popular and most of the automakers decided to go into that direction as well. In BMW's case, the original Hydrogen 7 were powered by a V12, running on both hydrogen and gasoline. The fuel tank has a capacity of 19.5 US gallons that helped the Hydrogen 7 run for about 310 miles. The other tank was filled with 30 US gallon liquid hydrogen(at a temperature of -253 Celsius). The hydrogen was only good for a distance of around 125 miles. The current Hydrogen 7 version loses the gasoline tank and it will run only on hydrogen. Of course, typical for BMW , no extra details have been released so far, but we do know that in April, they will show the car at the the 2008 SAE Wor...

The future of airflight? Hydrogen Fuel Cell based!?
2008-04-05 05:50:00 What your looking at to the left might just be the future of flight, or at least whats inside of it might be to be more precise. With the rising cost of oil and jet fuel as well the Air industry is looking at alternative power sources just about as hard as the automotive industry is if not harder. With so many passengers at stake all demanding cheap flights in a world where prices to travel keep going up due to the constantly increasing fuel charges. In fact according to one of my shipping companies their jet fuel costs are closing in on TRIPLE their 2006-7 rates. The plane you see above is the prop driven aircraft that only has a single pilot seat but it did complete a 20 minute flight at 100km an hour at a 1km altitude. Not exactly magical, but what is is the fact it was powered by a hydrogen battery system not a standard power source. The 800 kilogram craft measured in at 16.3-meters of wingspan and with this new power pack is capable of 45 minutes of flight on a single hydr...

Hydrogen car projects affected by CARB regulations
2008-04-04 03:06:00 According to a recent article in Forbes, the new CARB rules will affect negatively all hydrogen car projects. Even though this is something quite a number of our readers consider good, the article states that it's bad, and it's a direct consequence of the reduction to 7,500 the number of zero-emissions vehicles required by 2014. This is 70 percent fewer than the 25,000 ZEVs CARB had mandated in 2003.Although what we might consider electric cars to be more ZEVs than hydrogen-powered vehicles, the article considers hydrogen fuel cells as solid ZEV options. Quoting GM sources, the article says that the problem is the lack of hydrogen infrastructure, not the ability of automakers to build hydrogen-powered cars. If a carmaker produces a small number of hydrogen-powered cars that can go a long distance, they won't be required to make many electrics.[Source: Forbes]

BMW builds a hydrogen-only version of the Hydrogen 7
2008-04-01 03:27:00 So far all the Hydrogen 7s that BMW has produced and distributed have been dual fuel vehicles that are capable of running on either hydrogen or gasoline. This is helpful since the H7 only has a range of about 100 miles from its tank of liquid hydrogen. BMW has now built a mono-fuel hydrogen only version of the H7 that has been optimized for running on the alternative fuel. By not having to compromise the engine to run on gasoline, BMW has been able to improve performance, reduce fuel consumption and extend the range. The mono-fuel H7 was recently tested at the Argonne National Lab which found out the exhaust gases were actually cleaner than the ambient air going into the engine. BMW will release more specifics about the mono-fuel H7 in two weeks at the SAE World Congress. For now, the mono-fuel H7 is just a tech demonstrator with no production plans.
