Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Cars



Never read such a poor uneducated thread in my life, conversion of energy takes energy and loses some in the process. Ok put generator on your wheels and the energy to turn the wheel increases with the load on the generator. All these ideas are so stupid I have lost the will to live. Motorists in Roanoke, Virginia, got the chance to test a novel kinetic energy recovery device just by driving over a speed bump. Vehicle-to-grid charging devices are DC chargers, since this way the cars' own unidirectional on-board chargers can be bypassed.

During the day, electricity from the sun goes right into my car’s battery. It costs less to charge an electric vehicle than it does to buy gasoline, even when traveling — if you plan ahead. Between 2010 and 2015, consumers purchased approximately 210,000 BEVs and 190,000 plug-in hybrid electric vehicles —small numbers compared to 226 million registered vehicles in the United States. Total U.S. sales of plug-in electric vehicles have increased in recent years, but still represent only about 0.7% of new vehicle sales in 2015.

The problem is the oil industry wants to control everything. If this car was ever produced nationwide, it would put millions of people out of work and crush the oil industry. They would still produce oil, mainly for our military, commercial airlines, and foreign countries. No one wants an electric car that only travel 100 miles before charging. Even I am wondering why won’t company come up with engine to trap the energy that is produced by running car and recharge the battery on It’s own.

Many new vehicle technologies have the goal of steering automobiles away from dependence on fossil fuels. One option is the all-electric, battery-powered vehicle that uses no gasoline or diesel fuel and does not directly emit any carbon dioxide . However, as much as two-thirds of the electricity used to recharge the vehicle’s batteries is produced by burning fossil fuels, the nation’s single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions.

It’s a largely symbolic regulation, designed to spur action in the European Union, but the Netherlands and Norway are also discussing bans, and 20% of new car sales in Norway are already electric. Orge Cruz has just finished his overnight shift stacking shelves at Whole Foods create electricity by driving a car in Los Altos, California, and is waiting at the bus stop outside. Like much of Silicon Valley, there’s a regular flow of Tesla, BMW, Nissan and Google electric cars that cruise past from their nearby headquarters, and Cruz rather likes them. Fuel cell cars are available for sale or lease by major automakers in popular vehicle types, including sedans and compact SUVs. As the numbers increase, stakeholders are working to ensure hydrogen is widely available to drivers.

In any event, electric cars don’t have tailpipes and don’t spew the smog-forming pollution that make life miserable in congested cities and which is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States. The environmental impact may instead be shifted to the site of the generation plants, depending on the method by which the electricity used to recharge the batteries is generated. This shift of environmental impact from the vehicle itself to the source of electricity is referred to as the long tailpipe of electric vehicles. That’s based on a 2018 study by the Union of Concerned Scientists. As the U.S. continues to increase generation of clean electricity, electric vehicles become an even cleaner option.

If they bring an angle grinder, you will definitely hear them, and should probably call the police. In any event you would know immediately because your power would go out! Six years in market with thousands of customers coast to coast, not one theft or problem. A typical vehicle can provide power for 50+ hours up to 80+ hours on a tank. Compare this to a typical portable gas generator that needs attention every 4-5 hours because of its tiny little gas tank.
