THCE e + H2 Car
Total Home and Car Energy Electric/Hydrogen Hybrid Car
Why?
- Most trips and daily needs can be filled by an all electric vehicle
- Occasionally and for longer trips, the need for extended range and less than 5 minute fill ups is required.
- The car ’’must’’ have everything a current generation car has with similar performance and safety.
Ok, so most of the time an electric car is fine. The great thing about electric cars is that you’ve decoupled the power source from the car! All electric cars have very little maintenance required – there’s no engine oil or oil filter to change, no air filter to ahcnge and no transmission to fail. Recall the GM EV1 from a few years ago? According to lessors, they had no maintenance costs over a 3 year period. Nice.
With an electric car, whatever the most efficient electric power generation device is can be added to the vehicle to charge the batteries. It simply needs to fit into the place they last generator was.
Why hydrogen?
- Highly efficient electrical generation. The Fuel Cell is a highly efficient method of converting hydrogen + oxygen into electricity. Creating hydrogen is ‘’very inefficient’’ that’s why hydrogen created by solar energy is really the only answer. Centrally produced hydrogen is just another way for oil companies to overcharge us for something that isn’t any easier to mine or create than what you and I can do at home – over the long term.
- Local Storage – a couple 3000 psi tanks
- Simple and cheap raw materials – water
- Quick refill – less than 5 minutes to fill your car
- Can be used for portable, home or car electricity generation
