GM will deploy hydrogen stations in Hawaii


Hydrogen is considered the fuel of the future. In reaction with oxygen from an electrochemical process, the elements combined generate electricity. In the bowels of a car, this force can be stored in batteries, which then feed electric motors. However, enabling this technology is still a huge challenge, since H is a component difficult to isolate, despite abundant. However, in Hawaii, this is a bit more streamlined and GM already has his eye on that possibility.

On Wednesday (12), the U.S. group announced its partnership with TGC (The Gas Company), based on Pacific islands. What interests the automaker is the new patented process for Hawaiian company that obtains hydrogen from a cheaper way from the extraction of natural gas in the region, whose concentration has more than 5% of the element used to generate electricity cleanly . "Any step in reducing our dependence on foreign oil is a step forward," she believes the state senator Dan Inouye of Hawaii.

Besides the more hydrogen into account, GM plans to deploy between 20 and 25 gas stations in Hawaii for the purposes of further investigation into the viability of the technology on a larger scale in future. According to the design specifications of both companies, it is expected that the hydrogen in the short term cost the same or perhaps less than gasoline in the region, which is committed to reducing by 70% using the refined energy source from oil.
