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 ...

Fuel cells are not some novel new technology. In fact, most history books credit the invention of the fuel cell to Welsh chemist and physicist William Grove, who, in the late 1830s and early 1840s, ...

Researchers found an ultrafast alternative to the slow oxide ion transfers of conventional fuel cells, increasing efficiency and performance by using hydrocarbon fuel directly. The commercial ...

Posts from this topic will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Mining trucks, cement mixers, and terminal tractors all seem like the perfect use of hydrogen fuel cells. But ...

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Hydrogen fuel cells are emerging as a viable alternative to diesel in many use cases, including longhaul applications that need more range than battery-electric vehicles offer. Cost ...

Fuel cells powered with the metal could provide a new source of electric power that's far more energy-dense than lithium-ion batteries. A new type of fuel cell that runs on sodium metal could one day ...

Just like battery-electric cars 20 years ago, hydrogen fuel cell cars suffer from the old chicken and the egg problem. Nobody wants to buy a fuel cell vehicle until the supporting infrastructure is in ...

Paccar and Toyota are expanding their joint efforts to develop and produce zero-emissions, hydrogen fuel cell Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks powered by Toyota’s next-generation hydrogen fuel cell ...

Adsorbed structure of caffeine on well-defined Pt single crystal electrodes and the activity of air electrode of fuel cell before (blue bar) and after (orange bar) caffeine modification. With global ...

Researchers have developed a new catalyst design capable of pushing the projected fuel cell catalyst lifespans to 200,000 hours. The research marks a significant step toward the widespread adoption of ...
