This is a guest post by John R. Please take me seriously since I am. I am a retired electrical engineer. I began my autoeer I as a technician at Bell Telephone Laboratories. I worked there from 1967 through 1970. I then went to Wescom (now Rockwell company) and worked …

The U. S. Department of Energy Secretary Dr. Steven Chu, a Nobel Prize Winner, has on many occasions insinuated that he is a hydrogen hater, by trying to zero out the Federal budget for hydrogen autos. He calls them “impractical” while battery electric autos have gotten his blessing. As early …

The Danish have done it again. They’ve identified a problem and solved it using high tech. At the low tech Holstebro Cemeteries there is a need for quiet machinery and transportation so that the staff can go about the gardening and beautification duties. So, in steps the EcoMotion Truck, which …

Scientists from around the world are working on ways to storage hydrogen cheaply and efficiently at near room temperatures and as at as near room pressures as one can get. Bonding hydrogen atoms to other materials and them releasing them as needed for fuel for autos has been problematic for …

Okay, usually I don’t comment on stories in the news that seem too good to be true. A couple of years ago a story broke about a Japanese water auto that all of the major media outlets picked up and ran with even through there was no proof that this …

One of the aspects that is holding back the growth and commercialization of hydrogen autos and infrastructure development are cheap and effective H2 storage tanks. Hydrogen fuel tanks inside the vehicles tend to be bulky, too heavy and too expensive. Hydrogen storage tanks outside the vehicles such as at H2 …

If you think the price of going green is high, then you should think about the price of developing new green technology. This is why automakers General Motors and BMW have decided to team up to co-develop new hydrogen fuel cell technology for autos. According to Bloomberg, “Fuel cells generate …

by guest blogger Stan Thompson Unless you have access to Dr. Who’s TARDIS or H. G. Wells’ Time Machine, you’ll have to depend on old texts to envision William Murdoch’s 1784 steam locomotive debut in Britain or Peter Cooper’s Tom Thumb, the first locomotive to run in America. But if …

Safety is the most important feature of any vehicle and hydrogen autos are no different. As alternative fuel vehicles penetrate the marketplace consumers are naturally skeptical of safety issues surrounding the new technology. This is where the CSA International testing labs step in. The CSA International testing labs are accustomed …

Since 2007, I have been talking about the benefits of hydrogen fuel cell forklifts in warehouses inside and outside the U. S. borders. Canada has been an early adopter, especially the Walmart distribution centers in Western part of this country. In the city of Cornwall, Ontario, Canada (on the Eastern …
