First solar-powered hydrogen plant in AF complete on Hickam
HICKAM AIR FORCE BASE, Hawaii – Chris Gaje, Hydra FLX Systems hydrogen station operator from Houston, Texas, checks the temperature on an electrolyzer here May 13. The electrolyzer uses water (H2O) and electricity from the inverter box to flash boil water so hot and so fast that the hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the water split to make pure hydrogen. The hydrogen provides non-petroleum-based power for vehicles The first hydrogen-powered vehicle here was developed in 2003, and because the hydrogen plant is now powered by the solar array they have achieved a major demonstration milestone in the program.
