Russia has
everything to establish itself as a leader in some fields of hydrogen economy.
Four research concepts are of highest
priority now, reports the vice president of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The first one is building hydrogen power plants – several power plants
of new generation are already carrying energy to Russian population.
The second trend is development
of portable energy systems up to 10 kW – such device provides necessary
energy for one apartment's self-sufficiency.
The world's most popular research
trend is still hydrogen vehicle development. Such vehicles now exist both
in Russian and in America, but their price is yet too high.
And the last, but not the
least opportunity for Russia to become a world leader is development of
portable units, allowing computers and military equipment to function for
a longer time without recharge. Russian scientists have already done all
necessary paperwork, but commercial production is still to be launched.
