Japan Intends to Expand Hydrogen Highway System for Whole Country

I’ve already talked about the Japanese hydrogen highway system that has been growing over the past few years. Now, the plan is for Japan to extend this hydrogen highway system for the entire country by 2015. This is good news for Japanese car manufacturers such as Toyota, Nissan and Mazda that all have their own […]

Ammonia or Aluminum May Be Key to Hydrogen Production

I’ve talked many times about either using ammonia or aluminum compounds as a chemical carrier for hydrogen and large scale production of H2 gas. Now scientists in separate facilities are excited about their findings in both of these areas. Researchers at the DOE’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have discovered that combining ammonia borane (H3NBH3), […]

Florida Researchers Harnessing Gulf Stream for Electricity and Hydrogen

Florida Atlantic University researchers are investigating the merits of developing underwater turbines along Florida’s Gulfstream to provide electricity for homes and generate hydrogen for cars. The Gulfstream for ships (similar in some ways to the jet stream for airplanes) help vessels move more quickly from the Caribbean, around Florida and into the upper-North Atlantic. Before […]
