2 “A Sun-Powered Hydrogen Car (Sort of)” By Andrew C. Revkin Published: February 7, car-is-here/

The H2GO car seems to have it all worked out. The basic energy source is a solar panel that both charges the radio-control unit and provides the electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen in a little fueling station. The hydrogen fills a tiny bladder inside the car as needed. The hydrogen there generates a flow of electricity sufficient to power the car for about 5 minutes, according to Corgi International, the manufacturer. That’s shorter than the 15 minutes a typical battery-powered toy like this runs. But Corgi says the H2GO simply pops back over to the filling station for an immediate fill-up, while toys with batteries have to be recharged. 3

4 So, the car of the future is here now, at least in miniature, and at $99.99 apiece. A lot more fuel-cell- powered toys are in the works. Keep in mind that if we all end up buzzing around in full-size hydrogen-powered cars someday, that still won’t solve the congestion problem in an urbanizing world heading toward 9 billion people. But having all the steps in a clean-energy transportation system worked out in front of kids’ eyes might open a few.
