ANGI Energy Systems dispatches first hydrogen dispensers for Chart Industries’ transportable refuelers

Green Car Congress

ANGI Energy Systems, a Vontier business, has dispatched the first two of six hydrogen dispensers from its headquarters in Janesville, Wisconsin to Chart Industries. By partnering with companies like ANGI, who have decades of experience in compressed gas, we can deploy vital solutions sooner and meet the needs of fleets today.

UW Madison chemists discover new way to harness energy from ammonia

Green Car Congress

A research team at the University of Wisconsin–Madison has identified a new way to convert ammonia to nitrogen gas through a process that could be a step toward ammonia replacing carbon-based fuels. One of the drawbacks of ammonia synthesis is that the hydrogen we use to make ammonia comes from natural gas and fossil fuels.

Five New Fusion Prospects, Minus the Neutrons

Cars That Think

Deuterium and tritium are hydrogen isotopes that fuse at lower temperatures and release more energy than other reactions. Gerald Kulcinski, University of Wisconsin A new breed of maverick fusioneers is aiming to solve the neutron problem. TAE’s approach calls for fueling its reactions with hydrogen and boron, a mix also known as p-B11.

Using the PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle) to Transition Society Seamlessly and Profitably From Fossil Fuel to 100% Renewable Energy

Green Car Congress

He was formerly with the University of Wisconsin and Rockwell International, and holds a Ph.D. Its potential as an electric energy storage facility means the PHEV can be used to even-out the vast energy inefficiency of the current grid, as well as to store intermittent solar and wind energy, a process which we will soon explain.
