On the fuel cell project, Pajarito Powder will work with Brookhaven National Laboratory, General Motors Co., Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Strategic Analysis, as well as with national laboratory ...

A high acid environment is great for a snappy hydrogen oxidation reaction—the reaction at the heart of a clean-energy fuel ...

A fuel cell is almost like a battery that has replenishable fuel. Instead of charging a battery with an electric current, you recharge a fuel cell with something like hydrogen or you simply consume it ...

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), often referred to as "hydrogen power banks," are clean energy devices that generate electricity from hydrogen and oxygen with only water as a byproduct.

Hydrogen fuel cells, which produce electricity with high efficiency and zero greenhouse gas emissions, are gaining attention as a next-generation clean energy technology. However, their ...

A record-breaking catalyst could help a new generation of fuel-cell electric vehicles to draw their hydrogen supplies from liquid fuels such as methanol. By purifying the hydrogen stream that feeds ...

Hydrogen fuel cells are used to convert hydrogen into electricity. To facilitate the reaction that produces the electricity, they use an expensive platinum catalyst. Scientists at Imperial College ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. – To make fuel cells more affordable, researchers have spent decades searching for low-cost catalysts to replace platinum and other expensive metals. This includes experimenting with ...

The manufacturing and deployment of hybrid and electric vehicles is on the rise, contributing to ongoing efforts to decarbonize the transport industry. While cars and smaller vehicles can be powered ...

Cost and performance limitations have kept fuel cell-powered unmanned air vehicles within the military domain, but new catalyst technology could see this situation end. The Dayton researchers found ...

If we asked you to think of a device that converts a chemical reaction into electricity, you’d probably say we were thinking of a battery. That’s true, but there is another device that does this that ...
