dasa Posted May 16, 2002 Report Share Posted May 16, 2002 Honda Ploughs Cash Into Home Hydrogen Plants: Honda is investing more cash into hydrogen powered cars. It is helping to develop home-based generators which produce the fuel so drivers don't have to fill up at stations. Company bosses believe the move will encourage would-be buyers who worry about the limited number of places to refuel. Honda is teaming up with New York firm Plug Power to carry out research into home-based hydrogen refuelling stations. The home hydrogen stations could use natural gas to provide heat, hot water and electricity to the home, while also producing hydrogen for a fuel-cell vehicle. The only exhaust emissions from hydrogen-powered cars is water vapour. Mark Sperry, Plug Power vice president, said: "We think this concept has the ability to accelerate public acceptance significantly by putting hydrogen at the point of need instead of building an elaborate infrastructure."
