 Illustration of steps towards a cleaner, reliable, decentralised energy supply. In my opinion, cars are the key for a new Energy Supply based on H2/FC. All it takes is four steps. Step 1 – Renewable energies (like wind, solar, hydroelectric and/or biomass energy) produce Hydrogen. Step 2 – The cars drive on Hydrogen using Fuel Cells and electrical motors. (The first two steps are readily available worldwide. However, at this time, there’s no public demand for use of these options. To get the repeatedly promised Hydrogen economy on its wheels, two more steps must follow.) Step 3 – While parked, these vehicles drive idle and supply electricity to the buildings where they are parked. Step 4 – Car owners earn money based on the electricity/heat supplied by their cars. The incentive for car owners driving and using vehicles equipped with Hydrogen and Fuel Cells systems is twofold. They can either save or earn money while their cars are parked and plugged into buildings via a smart docking station. For example, your car parked at home in your garage will supply electricity to your home and additionally, replace the function of your existing boiler, thus saving you money. You can earn money by selling the electricity generated, but not used at home at that time, to the utilities and feed it into the existing electricity grid. |
