Hydrogen Fuel Cell Cars: How a Fuel Cell Vehicle Works

A Guide to The Technology, Benefits, And Challenges of Hydrogen-Powered Vehicles
 Prof. Aécio D’Silva, Ph.D. and Team
Hydrogen fuel cell cars are a type of electric vehicle that uses hydrogen as a fuel to generate electricity on board. Unlike conventional electric vehicles that rely on batteries to store electricity, hydrogen fuel cell cars produce their own electricity using a device called a fuel cell. In this Collaborative Intelligence post, we will explain how a fuel cell vehicle works, what are its advantages and disadvantages, and what are the prospects and barriers for its adoption.

Harvesting the Sky: Solar-Powered Hydrogen with Direct Air Electrolyzers

A Revolutionary Technology Turning Thin Air into Clean Fuel
Producing Hydrogen Direct from the Air – How this technology works, why it is important, and how to implement it – Solar Powered Direct Air Electrolyzer: A Novel Way to Produce Green Hydrogen from Air
Prof. Aécio D’Silva, Ph.D
Producing Hydrogen Direct from the Air – Hydrogen is a clean and versatile energy carrier that can be used for various applications, such as transportation, electricity, and industry. However, most of the hydrogen produced today comes from fossil fuels, which emit greenhouse gases and contribute to climate change. To produce hydrogen in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way, we need to use renewable energy sources, such as solar power, and water as the raw material. However, water is a scarce and precious resource, especially in arid and semi-arid regions, where solar energy is abundant, but water is not. Is there a way to produce hydrogen from solar power without using water? The answer is yes, thanks to a novel technology called solar-powered direct air electrolyzer (DAE).

Green Hydrogen from Solar Energy: What It Is, How It Is Produced, and Why It Is Important for a Future Clean Environment

Green hydrogen is a form of renewable energy that can be produced from water and sunlight and can be used to power various applications, such as transportation, industry, and electricity
Prof. Aécio D’Silva, Ph.D
Green hydrogen is hydrogen that is produced by splitting water by electrolysis, using electricity that has been generated using renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind power. This process produces only hydrogen and oxygen, and does not emit any greenhouse gases or pollutants. Green hydrogen can be used to power various applications, such as transportation, industry, and electricity, by using fuel cells, turbines, or boilers. Green hydrogen can also be stored, transported, and distributed, by using tanks, pipelines, or trucks. Green hydrogen can help reduce the dependence on fossil fuels and contribute to the decarbonization and sustainability of the energy system.
