TH!NK HYDROGEN
Electric car with Danish fuel cells
H2 Logic, a small Danish development company in fuel cell technology, will deliver fuel cell systems for further development of Think, an electric car from Norway’s Think Technology. During this year up to 8 demonstration cars will be tested in Scandinavia. The H2 Logic systems will extend the car’s range to 300 km per hydrogen fill-up.
The Think electric car was developed in 2002 while Think Technology was owned by Ford Motors. H2 Logic’s fuel cell system will now be integrated in the car’s battery system.
Fuel cells convert hydrogen into electricity through a chemical process. The only waste product is pure water. Hydrogen is produced via the reverse chemical reaction, namely the electrolysis of water. Production of hydrogen in this way is done using electricity from wind power, usually at night. The hydrogen can be stored and used thereafter in the transport sector.
