Blue World Technologies starting production of methanol fuel cells

Methanol reforming is a relatively simple process that converts a mix of methanol and water into a hydrogen-rich gas. The simple system design enables a high total system power density although the stack power density is lower than generic stack designs. In a generic system that would mean using primary fuel, leading to lower efficiency.
