Fraunhofer working on optimized methanol reformers to deliver hydrogen

Green Car Congress

Methanol reformers convert easy-to-transport methanol into hydrogen. Converting hydrogen into methanol can provide a solution, as not only is methanol much easier to transport than hydrogen, it can also be stored almost unlimited at ambient pressure. The overall carbon footprint is therefore neutral. © Fraunhofer IMM.
