Could Hydrogen Breakthrough Revive The Fuel-Cell Car?
“We think this discovery is a game-changer in the world of alternative energy,” said Y.H. Percival Zhang, an associate professor of biological systems engineering. Zhang lead a Virginia Tech team that developed a way to produce large quantities of hydrogen from xylose, an abundant simple sugar that makes up 30 percent of the cell walls of plants.

Scientists to produce zero-carbon fuel by mimicking plants
As carbon emissions continue to rise and environmentalists not really ready to adopt geoengineering solutions as a part of their plan for long-term relief, governments over the world are placing their bets on renewable energy, most of the sources of which remain highly untapped due to the challenges that exist in converting them to clean energy. Now a team of British scientists have joined forces to develop a system that can mimic plant photosynthesis to produce hydrogen using sunlight. Hydrogen can then either be used to power cars or produce clean energy on demand. Full Story
