large power generator With advanced fuel cell technology making it efficient enough to replace existing thermal power plants Large fuel cells are more efficient than existing power plants. Fuel cell technology has been developed to produce electricity without The heat produced by the chemical reaction can also be used to turn boiling water into steam to turn the generator.

Nowadays, fuel cells can be used in a variety of ways. because they are a source of electrical energy At the moment, most automakers are building commercial fuel cell vehicles. Fuel cells can be used as a power source for cars. motorcycle boat and signal lights along the highway Pocket-sized fuel cells that can be used in mobile phones. Notebook computers, etc. Fuel cells can last longer than conventional batteries.
Fuel cell cars are already in use.
Fuel cell cars are already in use in Europe.
Currently, buses and passenger ships in Europe Powered by hydrogen fuel cells in all 9 major cities. This project is called CUTE, which stands for Clean Urban Transport for Europe, which must have existing hydrogen stations throughout the city. It is a project that will reduce air pollution in European cities. Iceland is one of the top countries to rely on hydrogen as a primary energy source. Call it the Hydrogen Economy instead of the Oil Economy.
The advantage of using fuel cell vehicles is that cars do not need engines like conventional cars. Because it is driven by an electric motor. therefore no noise and no exhaust and up to 60% efficiency, or 3 times more efficient than gasoline-powered engines
At present, there are many leading car companies. A hydrogen fuel cell vehicle can be produced. But there is also the problem of not having a hydrogen gas pump. Therefore, it cannot be produced commercially. Fuel cell vehicles would be a good choice for reducing pollution. and increasing energy efficiency in the transport sector due to
1) No exhaust emissions
2) Low maintenance
3) Hydrogen is everywhere and can be used as an energy source as well.
4) Can be used in very cold weather.
5) Fuel cells are small and lightweight. And performs 3 times better than gasoline-powered vehicles with high safety
Fuel cell vehicles are now available.
Foreign news agencies reported from Tokyo. Japan, on November 18, 2014, Toyota, the world’s largest automaker in Japan, revealed that the “Toyota Mirai”, a hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicle It is scheduled to be released in Japan on December 15 at a price of 6.7 million yen (about 18 million baht), in Europe and the United States, it is scheduled for sale in the middle of next year. The company aims to sell 400 units domestically and 300 units worldwide during the first year of sales.
Toyota Mirai is a 4-door passenger car that is designed to have a sporty, modern look. It is a vehicle of the future as the word Mirai means in Japanese. He said at a launch event on Tuesday that fuel cell vehicles will soon dominate the market. And this is the first step, with Mirai powered by compressed hydrogen gas. Which is contained in 2 fuel tanks under the car With this amount of fuel The Mirai can run 650 – 700 km without fuel cell vehicles emitting fumes. Although fossil fuels are used in the process of compressing hydrogen. Besides Toyota Other automakers, including Honda and Hyundai, are also experimenting with these types of vehicles.
One major obstacle is the lack of hydrogen refueling stations. There are only a few dozen locations around the world. Despite government support to increase the number of these fuel stations, Yoshikazu Tanaka, chief engineer in Toyota’s Future Vehicle Development Program, said the future of these vehicles depends on factors. As for the price, whether it can be lowered or not. including the comprehensive distribution of fuel stations For Mirai, it may take 10 to 20 years to increase sales to tens of thousands of units per year.
The Japanese government has given subsidies to those who want to buy such cars 2 million yen (about 500,473 baht), resulting in the actual price being reduced to only 4.7 million yen (about 1.3 million baht) and limiting sales only in An urban area with approximately 30 fuel stations throughout Japan. About 200 vehicles have been ordered in advance, mainly from government agencies and corporations that want to promote environmental conservation. Kato said that although at first, hydrogen would be an expensive fuel due to the small number of users. But as time goes on, the price will come down to encourage alternative energy use instead of oil. Which is a very important problem for Japan. Because each year the country has to spend a lot of money on oil imports.
Japan pushes for fuel cell vehicle project 3 famous car makers lead the team to add more hydrogen pumps
Japan explores fuel cell vehicle weaknesses Big car makers join forces with players in the energy infrastructure industry including financial institutions Announced a plan to establish a new company to build hydrogen stations across the country to spread the cost burden while accelerating and promoting the use of fuel cells. And in response to the government’s policy to increase the number of fuel cell vehicles and electric vehicles to 50 – 70% of new car sales by 2030. Japan currently has approximately 2,200 fuel cell vehicles on the road a day and 91 hydrogen stations. That is a big obstacle blocking the way forward of this type of environmentally friendly car.
