New platinum free fuel cell design cuts costs and could accelerate adoption of hydrogen based clean energy systems.

More efficient and longer-lasting fuel cells are essential for fuel cell-powered heavy-duty hydrogen vehicles to be an alternative to combustion fuelled counterparts. Researchers have developed an ...

A high acid environment is great for a snappy hydrogen oxidation reaction—the reaction at the heart of a clean-energy fuel ...

For heavy-duty vehicles like long-haul trucks, batteries often fall short. They take too long to charge and weigh too much. Hydrogen fuel cells offer a promising alternative. They can be refueled ...

worst fear is getting caught in a car fire. A lot of safety equipment--like your firesuit and fire extinguisher--is designed to protect you in the event of a fire, but your fuel cell is one of the few ...

If we asked you to think of a device that converts a chemical reaction into electricity, you’d probably say we were thinking of a battery. That’s true, but there is another device that does this that ...

What if the future of aviation didn’t rely on heavy lithium-ion batteries or complex hydrogen systems, but instead on a fuel as simple and abundant as sodium? At MIT, researchers are turning this bold ...

A British firm, Intelligent Energy, has demonstrated a new iPhone 6 fuel cell that integrated seamlessly into the existing chassis and can reportedly run the device for up to a week. The manufacturer ...
