In a paper in the Journal ChemSusChem they report that using a novel gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) enables stable performance close to the theoretical capacity (1675 mAh g -1 ) of a low cost sulfur-carbon composite with high active material loading, i.e. 70% S. Agostini, M., Navarra, M. and Scrosati, B. ChemSusChem doi: 10.1002/cssc.201700977.

Huber’s approach uses the oxygen already inherent in the biomass to produce high value oxygenated commodity chemicals that can be used to make performance polymer materials such as polyurethanes and polyesters. Plant biomass is typically about 40% oxygen by weight, while petroleum oil is less than 0.1% Brentzel, Kevin J. Christos T.

Cost reduction potential of a polymer fuel cell system using an ITM Power membrane. ITM Power has published figures showing what it believes is the highest ever polymer fuel cell power density using hydrogen as the fuel and ordinary air, rather than pure oxygen. DOE says that 2011 costs are $49/kW. Source: Carbon Trust.

The drive unit’s high efficiency means low costs of ownership: Fuel costs compared with an equivalent gasoline engine are much lower, at around €4 (US $4.70) per 100 kilometers (62.1 mi) (Germany, as of: August 2017). In gasoline mode, these figures are 5.6 liters per 100 kilometers (42.0 seconds (A4 Avant g-tron: 8.5

Locally CO 2 -neutral trucks and buses won’t sell themselves, because even in 2040—despite all efforts by manufacturers—the acquisition and total cost of ownership of trucks and buses with electric drives will be still higher than for diesel vehicles. The eCitaro is being continuously advanced for use in regular service.
