Summary
Millennium Cell and Dow Chemical Company are working together to create hydrogen fuel cells for portable electronics and they are closing in on solutions that will work for both consumer and military uses. Their technology is based on Millennium's Hydrogen on Demand technology, which uses sodium borohydride to create hydrogen. As well as providing lightweight power sources, these fuel cells will have longer run times and increased energy density.

- Hydrogen-based fuel cells offer the potential for longer run times and greater functionality for laptop computers and mobile phones, the companies said.
- For military applications, they provide higher energy densities at dramatically lighter weights.
- The jointly developed systems will be based on Millennium Cell's Hydrogen on Demand technology in conjunction with Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cells.
- Millennium Cell's acting chief executive and president H David Ramm said: "The keys to unlocking longer run times and greater functionality are breakthroughs in new materials, chemistry and engineering."
- Dow said that new sources of portable power are essential to supporting the next generation of consumer electronics.
- Energy systems based on Hydrogen on Demand safely generate hydrogen through the use of sodium borohydride.
- This chemical compound is non-combustible, high in energy density, easily distributed, and convenient for consumer use, the company said.
