Writer and occasional reluctant perpetrator of engine swaps, James O'Neil is a malaise era enthusiast and also fascinated by the many ways the auto industry has since recovered from those dark days.
Researchers have developed a new catalyst design capable of pushing the projected fuel cell catalyst lifespans to 200,000 hours. The research marks a significant step toward the widespread adoption of ...
Platinum costs roughly $31,000 per kilogram. Iron costs less than a dollar. That price gap has haunted the hydrogen fuel-cell industry for decades, because the oxygen-reduction reaction at the cathode ...
Fuel cells powered with the metal could provide a new source of electric power that's far more energy-dense than lithium-ion batteries. A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one day ...
What if the future of aviation didn’t rely on heavy lithium-ion batteries or complex hydrogen systems, but instead on a fuel as simple and abundant as sodium? At MIT, researchers are turning this bold ...
Fuel cells are not some novel new technology. In fact, most history books credit the invention of the fuel cell to Welsh chemist and physicist William Grove, who, in the late 1830s and early 1840s, ...
PEM fuel cells will see uptake in a range of mobility and stationary applications, with specific technology trends for the individual fuel cell components. This article introduces these constituent ...
