Trains, hydrogen-powered

Several models of HICE vehicles have been demonstrated and few are commercially available [25,28,33,38]. However, hydrogen-powered vehicles will not be available to common public until there is an adequate refueling infrastructure and trained technicians to repair and maintain these vehicles. The design of each hydrogen-powered vehicle may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and model to model. One model may be simple in design... [Pg.16]

Today, the power train costs of fuel-cell vehicles are still far from being competitive. They have the largest influence on the economic efficiency of hydrogen use in the transport sector and the greatest challenge is to drastically reduce fuel-cell costs from currently more than 2000/kW to less than 100/kW for passenger cars. On the other hand, fuel-cell drive systems offer totally new design opportunities for... [Pg.625]

The DMFC, based on a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC), uses methanol directly for electric power generation and promises technical advantages for power trains. The fuel can be delivered to the fuel cell in a gaseous or liquid form. The actual power densities of a DMFC are clearly lower than those of a conventional hydrogen-fed polymer electrolyte fuel cell. In addition, methanol permeates through the electrolyte and oxidizes at the cathode. This results in a mixed potential at the cathode (Hohlein et al., 2000). [Pg.229]

Many fuel cell systems have been developed since the first discovery of Sir William Grove. Fuel cell systems can produce electricity from several fuels (hydrogen, natural gas, alcohols, etc.) for many applications stationary power plants, power train sources, APU, and electronic portable devices, with nearly the same energy efficiency (around 40% in electric energy), irrespective of their size (from tens of MW for power plants to a few W for portable electronics). [Pg.406]

Further to the market size estimation, it should always be taken into account that the installation of a hydrogen-based autonomous power system will have a significant impact on the end user, therefore social aspects such as public awareness on hydrogen technologies, safety issues, user training etc. are of great importance. [Pg.149]

To face these threats, actions related to the training of potential users and owners of hydrogen-based power systems will be required in order to change the negative common perception of hydrogen. [Pg.169]
