Suzuki Burgman Fuel Cell Scooter is exhibited at The 41st Tokyo Motor Show. 70MPa hydrogen increased the amount of fuel that can be filled with a hydrogen tank to survive. 10L tank with enough capacity for range of 350km when driving 30km/h that provide stationary.

Development of this vehicle has been sold in Spain, the company produced “Burgman 125″ was based. This “road to a trial in the near future” anticipation that has been developed to offer improvements to existing models easy clearance. Length and body size 2055mm Ă— width 740mm Ă— height 1360mm.

The SX4-FCV fuel cell vehicle. GM-made high-performance fuel cell, 700-bar hydrogen tank (10,000psi) developed by Suzuki, which improved the driving performance of the capacitors used to assist during acceleration and braking energy recovery. Suzuki is planning to unveil a hydrogen fuel cell-powered SX4 concept model at the Tokyo Auto Show later this month. Minister of Transport certified to collect data from the test run on public roads are developed for practical use.

Mazda goes with the circle piston Wankel engine in the future and uses the rotary engine as an entry into the hydrogen age. How to drive the two prototypes Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen and Premacy Hydrogen Hybrid.

In Japan, the Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen has leased since 2006.  Athletes with mild grade: 109 hp must meet the prototypes.

The hydrogen rotary is conspicuous only by pasting on.

The prototype will demonstrate that hydrogen rotary engine and fit together well.

From the pipes flowing at RX-8 Hydrogen only water vapor.

The Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen was founded in 2003 at the Tokyo Motor Show presented.

Mazda uses the technique on tank vessels, the 350 bar handle. One filling is sufficient for approximately 100 kilometers.

The dual-fuel system makes changing the use of hydrogen and super gasoline possible.

The 105-liter tank H2 requires a complete boot.

Inside are Tankuhr except the second and the switch no difference to the production model to recognize.

Two ads for gasoline tank (five liters) and H2 (105 liters).

The hydrogen rotary with electric motor and lithium-ion battery makes the Mazda Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid to.

The hydrogen rotary hybrid provides powerful propulsion.

Mazda Premacy 5.

Given the high-pressure hydrogen tanks, the trunk shrinks to 230 liters.

The overall efficiency of the prototype is extremely low.

The drive of the Mazda Premacy Hydrogen Hybrid is that of the Mazda RX-8 Hydrogen in the shade.

Dre hydrogen Wankel has 350 Newton meter torque.

With hydrogen, the power is lower than with ordinary gasoline.

At the pump, there are expected differences.

Hydrogen pumps are rare in Norway.

The rotary engine is nothing to see, the high-performance electronic components dominate the engine compartment.

The Premacy Hydrogen RE Hybrid, two of seven seats to the hydrogen tank’s sake soft.

The graph shows the Wankel as electricity producers to charge the lithium-ion batteries.

Take off with hydrogen: Driven solely by the energy of a fuel cell is an airplane for its maiden flight in Hamburg started. Researchers want to demonstrate that the technology for use in aviation is suitable.

The Antares DLR-H2 during its technical flight trial in June 2009 at Zweibrücken. The fuel cell is slung under the left wing and the hydrogen tank under the right wing – with a capacity of either 2 or 4.9 kilograms. The fuel cell system used to power the Antares delivers up to 25 kilowatts of electrical power, and when flying in a straight line, the aircraft only requires about ten kilowatts of power. In this situation, the fuel cell is operating at an efficiency level of approximately 52 percent.

Another new feature of the Antares is the way its fuel cell is connected to the main electric motor that powers the aircraft. The motor controller, developed jointly with Lange Aviation and with the College of Advanced Technology in Berne/Biel, is capable of taking in and controlling voltages from 188 to 400 V. Through the direct link between fuel cell and motor, efficiency is optimised while costs, reliability and maintenance costs are minimised.

The hissing white tank drops in aerodynamically favorable shape hangs under the wing of a glider. Antares DLR H2 is the Air Force, in a few minutes to the first official flight at the airport Hamburg-FuhlsbĂĽttel will take off. It is the world’s first public flight of a single fuel cell-powered aircraft – and therefore sends Hamburg’s First Mayor Ole von Beust personally some Greetings. He says “It almost like the first flight of Yuri Gagarin into space”.

The DLR’s scientists will continue to work closely with Airbus and Lufthansa Technik cooperate. The technology-yard, the Antares DLR-H2, at the Lufthansa base in Hamburg will be stationed, technically supervise. The experimental fuel-cell makers of DLR, the Airbus A320 ATRA, a fuel cell in which the functions of the APU Hilfsgasturbine takes effect from the yard looks.
