Sustainable Fuel

Australian Institute of Energy's Hydrogen Division works to promote the responsible development of hydrogen as a fuel source. The Institute also has a branch in Perth. Despite their focus on conventional fuel, they are arranging a conference that will also consider sustainable fuels. This is well worth attending!

Sustainable vehicles

Aptera Motors have produced a car that is a small, but highly efficient (and fast!) electric/hybrid car. At the moment they only operate in the US, but  we may see them expand in the future as they are surviving the economic crisis better than their silicon valley competitors Tesla Motors.

Hydrogen vehicles worldwide will  identify and provide information on any hydrogen-fuelled vehicle available in the world, be it a motorcycle, aircraft, spacecraft (let's keep in mind NASA has used hydrogen for decades) , tractor or car. If it exists you will find it and it's producer here. It also has information about hydrogen fuel stations all over the world.
