US Air Force Pioneering Innovative Geothermal Energy Solutions
Seeking to fortify defense infrastructure, the Department of the Air Force has signed agreements for ground breaking geothermal energy prototype facilities at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho, and Joint Base San Antonio, Texas. When operational, the new facilities will deliver continuous clean energy for direct consumption at the installations.
Bramble Energy reveals solution to creating low cost hydrogen fuel cell technology
Innovator in fuel cell technology, Bramble Energy, has published a whitepaper identifying a clear path to creating what the company claims will be the world’s lowest cost fuel cell – an innovation which will revolutionise the hydrogen economy and drive mass adoption across mobility and energy sectors.
The whitepaper reveals Bramble Energy’s solution to creating a $100 per kilowatt stack achievable today – ten times cheaper than current traditional fuel cell costs – and has identified it could reach as low as $60 at unprecedented speed to market as a result of scale.
Dropping below industry price targets within such a game-changing timeframe will eradicate the high costs of fuel cell technology which remain the major barrier to wide hydrogen adoption, particularly in sectors such as transportation.
Current fuel cell technologies exceed $1000/kW, so it is a major leap to achieve $100/kW. The paper presents Bramble Energy’s ground breaking patented printed circuit board (PCB) fuel cell technology to bring industry towards this goal through innovative design, materials selection, and manufacturing processes.
