Project shows maritime fuel cell generator can increase energy efficiency by up to 30% at part load; reliability and cost issues

Green Car Congress

Project partner Young Brothers operated the generator for 10 months powering refrigerated containers in Honolulu, Hawaii. When fueling was needed, the generator was loaded onto a chassis (wheeled frame trailer) and trucked to Hickam, about 7 miles from Young Brothers, where the station operator would perform the fill in about 20-30 minutes.

Sandia study finds high-speed hydrogen-powered ferry and supporting infrastructure in SF Bay feasible

Green Car Congress

We can eliminate environmental pollution from ships. The group drew up conceptual specifications: a 150-passenger commuter ferry that would travel four 50-mile round-trip routes each day at a top speed of 35 knots (~39 mph) about 60% of the time. Zero greenhouse gas and criteria pollutants during operation. —Tom Escher.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) With this charge it can travel an average daily distance of about 30 miles (50 km), which is often enough to serve most consumers’ needs. Both owners drove an average of 12,000 total miles in the year.
