Fat D said:I think electromobiles are a perfect application for hydrogen fuel cells. Lithium, which is used for high-density batteries, is too scarce to use it in the large batteries cars need (and it is used anyway - way to get rid of resource-dependency...), and have the problem of requiring charging, which takes time. Hydrogen fuel cells, while their efficiency is somewhat lower, can be refilled at stations like combustion engines can, but their fuel can be generated without significant depletion of resources if you have a source of energy for that, enabling extension of their range with fuel stations similar to conventional vehicles, a solution I would certainly prefer over lithium batteries, despite potentially higher cost and space requirements.

ferofax said:this is not gonna happen, because oil companies and the people behind them won't let it. it takes away the dependency for oil, which is very bad for their respective business.
i imagine small projects enough to power a community or two would be appearing, but any bigger than that and i'll expect proposals to start getting shot down at every opportunity, maybe even some people dying.

If this catches on, the Oil industry would be like a candle in the wind.
PUN-ted!
Just to put rims over windmills? That blows.Slyakin said:Now how long before we can get this around the world?
20 years?
20 decades?
prob where theyRupeeClock said:It's as though the Dyson Air Multiplier model was applied to wind turbines!
Genius, why didn't we think of it sooner?
And the best part is that you only need to modify existing wind turbines, by outfitting the rim frame.
