Horizon is a startup that builds industrial-grade fuel cells. They buillt a small scale system to demonstrate the how H2 and fuel cell technology powers future automobiles.
The H-Racer (just 16 centimeters long, about 6.5 inches) runs on a 0.3-watt hydrogen fuel-cell motor and comes with its own refueling system. The fueling station extract hydrogen from water via electrolysis using solar energy generated from a solar panel. The free hydrogen is then pumped into the car. The H-Racer can runs about 3 minutes on a full charge of hydrogen and its emission is water.
