Well, it finally had to happen. After years of driving gas hogs on the highways, we are finally faced making some tough decisions at the car lots and gas pumps about lowering consumption and about cleaning up our environment. Remember a few years ago when global warming and greenhouse gases were being blamed on cow • Read More »

For A Really Green Car, Filler Up with Algae

In order to fuel up the hydrogen cars of the future, the H2 will most likely come from a number of sources. If scientists in Germany and Australia have anything to say about it, large amounts of hydrogen will come from algae they’ve been blooming at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia and the • Read More »

Using Byproducts to Fuel Hydrogen Cars

May 3, 2006 | By Hydro Kevin Kantola | Comments Off on Using Byproducts to Fuel Hydrogen Cars | Filed in: Hydrogen Fuel Production.

One of the key sticking points of going to a hydrogen economy is how are we going to produce enough hydrogen to fuel both car and home? Current methods include steam reforming natural gas and electrolyzing water. If a hydrogen economy is to come to fruition in the near future, we will most likely need • Read More »

Clean Coal to Power Hydrogen Cars

Clean coal technology will one day power hydrogen cars. At least this is the plan according to the U. S. Government’s FutureGen initiative. According to the Department of Energy (DOE), “The project will employ coal gasification technology integrated with combined cycle electricity generation and the sequestration of carbon dioxide emissions.” The U. S. currently has • Read More »
