In its on-going quest for fame and glory, Fujitsu has installed a fuel-cell (specifically, a proton exchange membrane, or PEM, fuel cell, which sounds way cool) at its Sunnyvale, CA campus. The monster fuel cell generates 200 kw of power, enough to provide for half of the compound’s data center’s cooling needs. Eventually, the unit [...]]]>

In its on-going quest for fame and glory, Fujitsu has installed a fuel-cell (specifically, a proton exchange membrane, or PEM, fuel cell, which sounds way cool) at its Sunnyvale, CA campus. The monster fuel cell generates 200 kw of power, enough to provide for half of the compound’s data center’s cooling needs. Eventually, the unit will also provide heat, at up to 85% efficiency (compared to normal systems that only achieve 50%).

Talk about a proof of concept. Ford hopes to break the land speed record for hydrogen-powered fuel cell autos with its Fusion 999. It’s not a practical model, being cooled with what I’m guessing is rather impractical technology, but Ford’s hoping this baby will hit 200MPH. Makes me a lot more willing to consider giving [...]]]>

Talk about a proof of concept. Ford hopes to break the land speed record for hydrogen-powered fuel cell autos with its Fusion 999. It’s not a practical model, being cooled with what I’m guessing is rather impractical technology, but Ford’s hoping this baby will hit 200MPH. Makes me a lot more willing to consider giving up my gas-powered sports sedan.
