IPG to demo Flameless Ceramic Turbine for clean, off-grid power in EV charging

Green Car Congress

IPG’s project will demonstrate the role of Flameless Ceramic Turbine technology in bringing EV charging to high-use and remote locations through clean, cheap, grid-independent power generation. But, in many high-use areas and remote locations, upgrading grid connections to meet future charging demand is not practical or commercially viable.

Advent Technologies and Alfa Laval partner in marine methanol-powered fuel cell development project

Green Car Congress

Methanol in particular has attracted substantial interest as a future fuel for the marine industry, and Advent’s HT-PEM fuel cells operate well on methanol, using an integrated reformer. This mixture provides many advantages as an energy-carrier, since it is less flammable than pure methanol and, therefore cheaper to transport.
