This is the opposite of the approach taken by Toyota with its Mirai fuel cell vehicle ( earlier post ) and Honda with its new FCV Concept ( earlier post ). Fuel cell technology is running in comepetition with long-range battery electric vehicles. Meanwhile, outside the stack the electrons supply the electrical power.

A large merchant ship, capable of carrying thousands of containers, could be powered by two (or more) 30-megawatt reactors. This artist’s conception, which is not based on any specific design for a cargo ship, is intended to show the approximate scale of such a vessel. The reactors would be small, modular units.

The hybrid super sports concept car made its debut at the 2010 Geneva International Motor Show, and was launched on the market as a limited series in late 2013. The key technology is the drive concept combining a high-performance combustion engine with two electric motors. This know-how will also be applied to future hybrid drives.

And the Norwegian company H2Carrier recently received approval in principle for its concept for an industrial-scale floating production unit to make green ammonia at sea. Airplanes, for example, won’t be able to fly long distances on battery power. To meet such targets, it’ll be necessary to build, and build fast.

By reducing wind resistance and weight, the company’s engineers effectively are reducing the amount of work an electric engine will have to perform to get the car up to driving speeds, which in turn conserves battery power.&#. Weight and poor design result in a disproportionate amount of fuel consumption in vehicles, Waters said.

The electron flow goes via the car’s lithium-ion battery, in essence keeping it charged, and recombines with the protons and oxygen at the cathode. The only by products are water and a fair degree of heat, the latter indicating a degree of inefficiency and wasted energy. So why haven’t FCEV becoming as prolific as other electric cars?
