| Russia's achievements
in producing energy using hydrogen fostered great interest at the annual
industrial fair in Hanover, Germany, said Boris Kuzyk, head of New Energy
Projects, a Russian innovation company.
Kuzyk said that the company's booth
attracted energy experts from the United States, China, India, Europe,
Canada and other countries. Russian specialists in hydrogen energy believe
their main task is carrying out research and development and designing
the end product, a hydrogen power plant, in cooperation with international
partners, Kuzyk said. He believes that hydrogen could be used to generate
electricity for homes and businesses, provide fuel for cars, river and
sea vessels and aircraft, and also serve as an autonomous source of energy
for the army.
In Hanover, the company presented
portable battery chargers for phones and laptops running on aluminum-hydrogen
button-type batteries. These devices can be used to charge batteries in
mobile phones and computers without an electricity supply and can prolong
the usage time of portable devices two- to threefold. New Energy Projects
is planning to take part in the World Energy Congress in Rome in November.
