New approach removes sulfur from military-grade fuel; Syngas powers the process
The military needs to get the sulfur out of its fuel, in order to use the fuel to produce hydrogen for fuel cell use in the field. view more (2006-03-29)
Mini-batteries for mobile phones
CIDETEC is working on a project the aim of which is to carry out a direct assessment of the technology of fuel cells for "mini" applications which have between 1 and 10 watt power requirements - such as for mobile phone or PDA chargers or for remote signalling, etc. to this end, a series of technologies are being developed in order to... view more...

Camcorder fueled with hydrogen
Peep! "Please switch off. Power supply almost exhausted." Every day millions of mobile phone, palmtop, notebook, portable CD player and camcorder users are driven to fury by this warning. Without a power source, this wonderful new wealth of modern electronics is of no use at all. Yet the mobile and wireless trend still surges on. Electronic... view more... (2001-04-19)
Improved rating for residential fuel cells
A new performance rating system for residential fuel cells developed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) can help prospective buyers assess the economic value of alternative fuel-cell technologies. view more (2006-06-28)
U of C chemists discover recipe to design a better type of fuel cell
Fuel cells are often touted as one method to help decrease society's addiction to fossil fuels. But there is still a lot of work to be done before fuel cells will be ready for mass market to be used in transportation, home heating and portable power for emergencies. view more (2009-10-19)
Northwestern team develops 'MRI' for fuel cells
As gasoline prices top $3 a gallon in major cities, the drive toward increasing energy efficiency and reducing air pollution has accelerated, and the development of fuel cells has become a major focus worldwide. view more (2006-06-19)
Chemical Could Revolutionize Polymer Fuel Cells
Heat has always been a problem for fuel cells. There's usually either too much (ceramic fuel cells) for certain portable uses, such as automobiles or electronics, or too little (polymer fuel cells) to be efficient. view more (2005-08-25)
NRL's XFC UAS achieves flight endurance milestone
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has completed a successful flight test of the fuel cell powered XFC (eXperimental Fuel Cell) unmanned aerial system (UAS). view more (2009-08-07)
Car not first application for fuel cells
The car will not be the first application for fuel cells. This is one of the conclusions in the doctoral thesis of Robert van den Hoed, which he will defend on 17 May at TU Delft. "My research project confirms that large organisations such as in the automobile industry have trouble implementing radical changes." A fuel cell powered car... view more... (2004-05-11)
Oxford University Fuel Cell Invention Wins Innovator of the Year Award
Researchers from Oxford University's Chemistry Department have won one of the three categories in the Carbon Trust Innovation Awards with their vision for sustainable energy provision. view more (2003-11-12)
Tiny fuel cell might replace batteries in laptop computers, portable electronics
If you're frustrated by frequently losing battery power in your laptop computer, digital camera or portable music player, then take heart: A better source of "juice" is in the works. view more (2006-09-13)
DARESBURY REPORT SHOWS ROAD TO CLEANER TRANSPORT
Future global targets on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases may be more easily met thanks to new research on catalysts for fuel cells, published today in the new annual report from Daresbury Laboratory’s Synchrotron Radiation Department. Tough emission targets are driving the development of zero emission vehicles such as electric cars.... view more... (2000-12-11)
Ion Tiger fuel cell unmanned air vehicle completes 23-hour flight
The Naval Research Laboratory's (NRL's) Ion Tiger, a hydrogen-powered fuel cell unmanned air vehicle (UAV), has flown 23 hours and 17 minutes, setting an unofficial flight endurance record for a fuel-cell powered flight. view more (2009-10-14)
Fuel Cells, Energy Conversion, and Mathematics
Concerns about dwindling fossil fuel resources, current levels of petroleum consumption, and growing pressure to shift to more sustainable energy sources are among the many factors prompting the transition from our current energy infrastructure to one that uses less carbon and requires the efficient conversion of energy. view more (2009-07-27)
Pellets of power designed to deliver hydrogen for tomorrow's vehicles
Hydrogen may prove to be the fuel of the future in powering the effi cient, eco-friendly fuel cell vehicles of tomorrow. view more (2007-08-22)
Fuel cells help make noisy, hot generators a thing of the past
Two core technologies developed at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory - a fuel desulfurization system and a fuel reforming system - were instrumental in the demonstration of an electric power system operating on JP-8, a fuel commonly used in military operations. view more (2007-12-12)
Step on the gas — New fuel cell design adds control, reduces complexity
When Princeton University engineers want to increase the power output of their new fuel cell, they just give it a little more gas - hydrogen gas, to be exact. view more (2007-01-17)
Hydrogen storage can be improved
The storage of hydrogen in fuel cell powered cars can probably be greatly improved by increasing the working temperature of the fuel cell. With the use of magnesium powder, the storage of hydrogen can take place more efficiently and safely and at a higher temperature. This is the conclusion of Gijs Schimmel, who will defend his PhD thesis at TU... view more... (2005-01-26)
Findings could improve fuel cell efficiency
A new type of membrane based on tiny iron particles appears to address one of the major limitations exhibited by current power-generating fuel cell technology. view more (2008-03-20)
News Alert: Energy for the future - Hydrogen and Fuel Cell industry sets out its blueprint
At its second General Assembly on 17 and 18 March, the European Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology Platform will present its proposals for the medium- and long-term development of hydrogen and fuel cells for carrying and converting energy cleanly. Europe faces the challenge of fluctuating oil prices, concerns about global warming and growth... view more... (2005-03-16)
