Fuel cell cars can provide more effi
cient and cleaner trans-
portation. However, we use our cars for transportation
only 5% of the time. So when parked, the fuel cell in the car
can produce electricity from hydrogen. Cleaner and more
effi
ciently than the current electricity system – with useful
‘waste’ products heat and fresh water. The produced elec-
tricity, heat and fresh water can be fed into the respective
grids or be used directly in our house, offi ce or the school
of our kids. The required hydrogen can be produced from
gas (natural gas, biogas) or electricity (hydro, wind, solar,
etc.). In the end these fuel cell cars can replace all power
plants worldwide. As a result, the ‘car as power plant’ can
create an integrated, effi
cient, reliable, fl
exible, clean, smart
and personalized transport-, energy- and water system.
THE
VISION
Fuel cell cars: efficient and clean transportation AND clean
and efficient production of electricity, heat and water.
