Reusable Fuel = Sustainability
Imagine a fuel that, rather than burning up and polluting the atmosphere, can be recycled to use over and over again. Zinc is that fuel and has the potential to replace traditional fuels to power the World.
Zinc vs Hydrogen
Zinc has numerous advantages over hydrogen as a fuel source:
Hydrogen
- Abundant - fossil fuel sourced
- Expensive to produce
- Purchased from Specialty Gas outlet
- Compressed Gas
- High Fuel Cell Production Costs
- Storage and Siting Restrictions
