The EU this summer decided to spend 500 million euros for research and development of hydrogen fuel cells, the goal is as soon as possible so that the first batch of hydrogen fuel cells in industrial production, and from the beginning of 2015 to achieve universal, it is expected to hydrogen fuel cells become a possible alternative sources of energy .
According to the French “Forum” recently reported that the EU plans to attract the 1500 European researchers, including Siemens, BMW, DaimlerChrysler, liquefied air and Total, and other well-known large companies, more than 50 enterprises to participate in .
New fuel cell will not pollute the air, will not aggravate the greenhouse effect, but the current technology is far from the manufacturers can not meet profit requirements.
French Atomic Energy Commission in charge of new energy technologies, the Ministry of Paul. Lucchese, the hydrogen fuel cell research has been made obvious progress, is expected in the next five years into mass production and sales.
But some of the hydrogen fuel technology applications doubt, in addition to the use of battery time, performance and cost issues, hydrogen transport issues should not be overlooked. At present, only the more than 200 experimental stations can provide hydrogen fuel.
