Abstract

We have developed a single person operated small fuel cell vehicle which uses a 1 kW fuel cell. The hydrogen used for the fuel cell is produced by a water electrolysis hydrogen generator using a solar powered energy source. The advantage of using a solar powered energy source is that it produces power without requiring use of fossil fuels.
