There’s been a lot of research in materials sciences in finding cheaper alternatives in which to store hydrogen or use as catalysts for hydrogen reactions. Most of this breakthrough technology perpetually seems to be 10 to 20 years away before commercialization. This is why when I heard about what the researchers at the University of [...]

What I am about to talk about is something you won’t find the mainstream media talking about. But it is nonetheless a big deal. Or it could be a big deal if this product works as billed. The last time I talked about the Ronn Motor Company H2GO system was July 2009. Since then there [...]
