Advanced lead-based batteries (AGM and EFB technologies) are installed to meet extra requirements in start-stop and basic- micro-hybrid vehicles, due to their increased charge recoverability and higher deep-cycle resistance. Other battery technologies (nickel-metal hydride, lead-based etc.) Nickel-metal hydride batteries.

The US Federal Transit Administration (FTA) has published a report summarizing interviews with participants in the hydrogen-powered buses trials underway in more than 20 cities around the world from 2002 to 2007. Participants reported that a number of fuel cell-related problems were caused by supporting components to the fuel cell.

We now have three working converted prototypes (both described in Fact Sheet above, shown in photos and here ): The Calcars first proof-of-concept: (100+ mpg plus electricity, 10-mile electric range, now with temporary lead-acid battery pack, soon to be replaced by nickel metal-hydride batteries).

Alternatively they can serve as buffers for renewables such as wind and solar power—whether as part of the grid or as home installations. Installation of CCS charging stations has already begun in Europe and the United States. Hydrogen is supplied to the anode, where it is broken down into protons and electrons.

Many continue to pay more attention to far-off hydrogen fuel cells than to this immediate solution. Fuel cell cars should be plug-in hybrids so that the fuel cell is used only for extended range, and the fuel cell stack and hydrogen storage can be smaller. How about putting PV cells on the roof of a PHEV? Are the batteries recyclable?
