1. About the H-racer

H-racer

The

is a futuristic toy car that contains one of the most exciting and advanced technologies

of the 21st century. This car operates on 100% clean fuel produced by a miniature solar-powered

hydrogen refueling station that converts water to hydrogen using energy captured from the sun. To

help improve the quality of our environment, reduce the impact of soaring energy costs, and

decrease our dependence on imported oil, the time is right to start introducing the world to the

benefits of hydrogen fuel cell technologies.

Cars running on clean and renewable fuel are the ultimate dream of many of today's world leaders,

engineers and scientists seeking to eliminate mankind's reliance on fossil fuels in favor of

climate-friendly energy resources. With new advances in technology, hydrogen is fast becoming the

world's next fuel. Hydrogen offers many important advantages: it is non-toxic, renewable, clean to

use, carbon-free, and it is the most abundant element in our universe. By using fuel cell technology

to convert hydrogen to electricity without any combustion, this approach offers a significant solution

to many of our global energy, environmental and security problems. The only exhaust resulting from

hydrogen fuel cell cars is pure water. This is why fuel cell cars that use hydrogen as a fuel are also

known as "zero emission vehicles."

Most of the world's automotive companies are developing hydrogen fuel cell vehicles with the hope of

introducing this revolutionary technology to the public over the next years.

The

is the world's smallest hydrogen fuel cell car, and the miniature version of real-size

hydrogen powered cars being developed today in laboratories. Although simpler in design, this

palm-size fuel cell car contains all the necessary technology to make it run. It includes an on-board

hydrogen storage tank, a fuel cell system connected to the car's electric motor, and a hydrogen

refueling valve system that can connect the car's storage tank to an external hydrogen refueling

station.

The

is also very safe. Given its small size, only tiny quantities of hydrogen are needed to

power the car. Its only emission is just tiny quantities of pure water that come directly out of the fuel

cell during operation. The amount of water produced by the fuel cell power system is so small that

you will not even notice it.
