"A technology led approach towards future sustainability should be complemented by the "push" of carbon trading systems"-sz05


Before June 2010 we will see for the first time, the commercial release of a small PEM fuel cell which will supply power to portable electronic devices. Portable electronic devices like mobile phones consume a lot of energy, and rechargeable batteries are not keeping up with the demands. The small fuel cell device in question here is called MiniPak produced by Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies of Singapore. Rechargeable batteries lose power when not in use over time,while the MiniPak always supplies full power and loses no energy when switched off.The MiniPak runs on its fuel cell being hydrogen gas supplied by a small canister/cylinder (HydroStik).The hydrogen gas is at very low pressure in the HydroStik, yet much hydrogen is stored in the special metal material inside the HydroStik. To refill the HydroStik/s a device was created called the HYDROFILL. The HYDROFILL generates hydrogen gas for the HydroStik/s.The HYDROFILL is the world's first home hydrogen generator, and just needs to be filled with distilled/de-ionised water and plugged into a normal power point. One HydroStik can be filled in ~one(1) hour, which can recharge a high energy mobile phone 2-3 times. Many products in the future may be developed with the above system in mind. Please see HORIZON FUEL CELL TECHNOLOGIES  of  Singapore. The Fuel Cell Institute of Australia Pty Limited has worked with Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies since year 03.

Bloom Energy: Congratulations to Bloom Energy for the development of their SOFC system(100kW).Time will tell on the issues of durability,  however many of Bloom Energy's SOFC systems have been in place and tested for some time already(18months).SOFC technology has held potential for some time and it appears that Bloom Energy has resolved a number of the engineering difficulties associated with high temperature fuel cells.
