clipper's remarks: Eden Energy, through its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary Hythane Company, has announced it has received a U.S. patent for its cryogenic storage vessels for liquid hydrogen. Among the applications, the new technology will advance the practicality of hydrogen cars by optimizing energy storage, reducing or eliminating the need for bulky lithium ion batteries.

The main use for this technology, called Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES), will be in the automotive industry. Whether used for traditional hybrids, electric cars, or hydrogen combustion engines, SMES will capture and use energy from the vehicle braking system to reduce or eliminate the use of large, expensive batteries. By combining fuel storage and the battery into a single unit, the range and efficiency of alternative fuel vehicles will be increased, and fuel can be stored in a much smaller space.

clipper's remarks: Clik on the link under PDF....... This is an incredible story. A bear was walking across the 'Rainbow Bridge' in Truckee California, on the I-80, California / Nevada Stateline, when two cars also crossed the bridge from bothdirections. The bear was so scared, with no place to run, made a leap over the side of the bridge.

clipper's remarks: I'm sure these cars will be popular in Europe, Japan, etc.. I don't think they'll take off in the U.S. until gas is $25 a gallon.
