Re: German Cabinet approves nuclear plant shutdown
Although the use of fuel cell technology wasn't actually the point I was
addressing per se, the actual application discussed in the reference was
using the fuel cell in a car to power a house, not vice versa. I'm sure
you're more familiar with this developing technology than most of us are,
but my technical dictionary defines a fuel cell as "a cell that converts
chemical energy directly into electric energy, with electric power being
produced as a part of a chemical reaction between the electrolyte and a fuel
such as kerosine (sic) or industrial fuel gas." It also defines fuel-cell
fuel as "a substance, such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide, sodium, alcohol, or
a hydrocarbon, which reacts with oxygen to generate energy in a fuel cell."
Apologies to all for taking up bandwidth on a sidebar--any who would like to
further enlighten me on fuel cells feel free to respond privately.
