Problems with the Petroleum Status Quo Problems with the Petroleum Status Quo  Exxon Valdez  Habitat destruction  Finite supply  OPEC, price fixing  Air pollution  Ozone depletion  Global Warming

Wind Energy Wind Energy  Vastly  Vastly improved technology has made wind power more viable  Differentially  Differentially exploitable  Storage  Storage and transportation concerns

Solar Energy Solar Energy  Clean, abundant, free  Necessary for life  Differentially exploitable

Fuel Cells Fuel Cells !Invented in 1839 !Available for commercial, residential, transportation and recreational use !Byproducts include electricity, heat, water, and other gases depending on energy source

Types of Fuel Cells * Alkaline * Phosphoric-acid * Solid Oxide (SOFC) * Molten Carbonate * Proton Exchange Membrane (PEMFC)

Potential FC Energy Sources ※ Hydrogen ※ Propane ※ Methanol ※ Kerosene ※ Natural Gas ※ Diesel Fuel ※ Gasoline ※ Solar Energy ※ Wind Power

Fuel Cell Powered Vehicles n Existing Chinese technology n Powered by 18kW PEMFC n Note fuel storage tank location on top of vehicles

Vehicle Efficiency Ü Combustion engine powered - 20% Ô Battery powered - 26% Ô FC powered %

Professor David King, Prime Minister Tony Blair’s chief scientific advisor, has called for a complete ban on gas or diesel powered cars - the first such advisement by any world Government agency. (Perhaps not all things English are so bad after all…)

Home Use 4 FC’s are already being field tested for home use 4 Retrofitting is minimal 4 Costs expected to come down rapidly with mass production
