FC-AQEL: Yamaha Fuel Cell Scooter
For the sake of the environment, Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd is announcing development of a 125cc fuel cell scooter called the "FC-AQEL". Using a hydrogen fuel cell system, it will include a pair of 35 MPa high-pressure hydrogen tanks, a Lithium ion secondary battery and more. This technology will be compacted in an ultra flat brushless DC motor. The transmission will be neatly contained in the hub section of the rear wheel. Now of course we know that hydrogen is really only a storage medium for energy. We will really have to work on green ways to create energy to make some gains and reduce the use of fossil fuels.
