“A hydrogen station in every home†is a futuristic dram that is about to become reality this week as Horizon Fuel Cell Technologies unveils what could be its biggest breakthrough to date: a meagre home hydrogen refueling and storage answer that could begin our transition to a hydrogen-based economy.
Named HYDROFILL(TM) unveiled at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The meagre desktop badge neatly plugs into the AC, a solar panel or a meagre wind turbine, automatically extracts hydrogen from its dampen container and stores it in a oppressive press in meagre refillable cartridges. The cartridges contain metallic alloys that absorb hydrogen into their crystalline cloth, and free it back at low pressures, removing concerns about storing hydrogen at lofty pressure. This storage style also creates the paramount volumetric enthusiasm density of any press of hydrogen storage, even higher than serum hydrogen. Unlike conventional batteries, these cartridges transact supplementary enthusiasm capacity, are cheaper, and do not contain any environmentally-nocuous ponderous metals.Â
