Japan’s Matsushita … "will claim first place in the race to put commercial home fuel cells on the market … " <\/p>\n

" … can optimally provide 70 percent of the energy needs for a 1,280 square foot house with four people … can reduce energy consumption by 22 percent and CO2 emissions by 12 percent as compared to all other power sources … ".<\/p>\n

" … cogeneration home fuel cell hooks up to the city’s natural gas lines, extracting hydrogen from the gas … hydrogen is combined with oxygen through a series of polyelectrolyte membranes, a process that creates electricity, heat, and water … home fuel cell produces between 500 watts and a 1 kilowatt of electricity and captures the heat to warm a tank of water, used for showers, dishes etc."<\/p>\n

" … a contribution to Japan’s goals of reducing global CO2 emissions 50 percent by 2050." " … fuel cells require a great deal of energy; for example, this unit contains more than 2,000 components. Whether the production of the units negates the energy and CO2 savings gained by customers is unclear." <\/p>\n
