Riversimple and its open source Hyrban hydrogen powered city car will be piloted on the streets in Leicester, UK. If all goes well according to the pilot study, expected to kick off in 2012, for a 12 month period, then Leicester is also the location where up to 5,000 Riversimple Hyrban cars will be built. […]

Yesterday I talked about how ITM Power was putting up a hydrogen fueling station at the Stansted Airport in London in 2011. And, in February 2010 I had talked about how the London fuel cell black taxi cabs were coming to London for the 2012 Olympics. Well now one of those hydrogen hybrid black taxis […]

On May 6, 2010 I had talked about how Toyota was boasting they will be able to build $50,000 hydrogen fuel cell hybrid vehicles by the year 2015. Over the weekend Hyundai-Kia has taken up the gauntlet and stated that they can beat that price. In 2008, Hyundai- Kia rolled out the Kia Borrego FCEV […]

Horizon Fuel Cell has put up for sale its new H-Cell 2.0 hydrogen hobby-grade remote control (RC) car that comes with a major redesign over the last version. Back in 2006, I had talked about the H-Cell 1.0 radio controlled RC that was good for its time. Besides more power and speed (the H-Cell 2.0 […]

Not often do I get the chance to utter the phrase, “hydrogen cars for sale” but today I do. Once before I was proud enough to day the phrase hydrogen truck for sale but now a “used” H2 car has come on the market. The hydrogen car for sale is a 1972 Gremlin that was […]

A team of university students from Polyjule of Polytech Nantes in France won the Shell Eco-Marathon hosted in Lausitz, Germany. The winning hydrogen fuel cell car achieved an incredible 11,516 mpge (miles per gallon equivalent). And while these numbers do seem incredible the 2005 Swiss ETH Zurich PAC-Car II still holds the record of 15,212 […]

Toyota has announced that by the year 2015 they will be selling hydrogen fuel cell vehicles for around $50,000 each, cutting the costs from half a decade earlier by about 90-percent. And not only this, but Toyota has stated that at $50,000 apiece the hydrogen fuel cars will make the company a profit. This week, […]

Last week I had talked about the upcoming National Hydrogen Association (NHA) Hydrogen Conference and Expo that is going on this week. I grabbed my media pass (which it turns out was unnecessary since it was Public Day) and ran down to check out some of the hydrogen fueled cars that I had never driven […]

It’s Earth Day … Again. Sometimes I feel like Bill Murray in the movie “Groundhog Dog”  (since the other Earth Day was celebrated on March 20 this year). Well, get up all you woodchuck chuckers and celebrate the environment and take one small step today in making this world a greener place. This week I […]

By reading the Smart Fuel Cell (SFC) press release one would think that its hydrogen fuel cell range extender for a battery electric vehicle plus combined heat and power (CHP) technology is earth shattering news. But, it’s only mildly newsworthy and I’ll tell you why. SFC has joined forces with EFOY Pro fuel cells to […]
