Electric vehicles have been the primary focus of zero-emissions car manufacturers, while hydrogen vehicles were relegated to the background.

The future of mobility will prioritize performance, rapid refueling times, and environment-friendly solutions. In line with these trends, hydrogen engines might be the next big thing to enter the automobile market. There are only a few selective manufacturers that are already working on this new technology to be ahead of the hydrogen vehicles, and BMW is one of them. BMW CEO Oliver Zipse announced hydrogen engines will play an important role in many regions of the world in the long run.

Hydrogen technology is a fantastic alternative. We need choices. Palm springs transit has been generating their own hydrogen for over 20 yrs, and operating ther public transit. New Flyer bus builder currently provides hydrogen new 2023 buses for puplic transit use in Pomona, Calif. There are warehouses full of old EV batteries, and no one currently knows what to do with them. Used Teslas fill the parking lot on Corona, CA. Yes, hydrogen needs a closer look!

Earth's Electric Whispers

Soil-based microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are not widely used, but show some promise as clean-energy options for low-energy sensors used in precision agriculture (soil moisture and health), infrastructure monitoring (water pipes leakages) or environmental monitoring (concentration of pollutants). This latest evolution of an MFC uses a non-traditional design & readily available components to deliver a performance improvement of over 120%. Importantly, the fuel-cell was able to generate 68 times more energy than needed by the sensors - so plenty to spare for more sensors! https://scitechdaily.com/scientists-develop-new-dirt-powered-fuel-cell-that-runs-forever/

Are lithium batteries for cars dead?

US military research into lower risk alternatives to lithium-ion batteries has led to the development of a new nanoelectrofuel for use in flow batteries. Flow batteries currently address all the downsides of lithium-ion batteries but can't deliver the same energy density - until now. Researchers have discovered that by adding nanofluids to the normal aqueous solutions (electrolytes), they can boost a flow battery's energy density by 15 to 25 times, making it comparable to any petrol-powered vehicle, much less lithium-ion battery EV's - without any of the associated downsides of either!https://spectrum.ieee.org/flow-battery-2666672335
