Maintenance: Planio will be observing a scheduled maintenance window this Sunday, November 10, 2024 from 20:00 UTC until 21:00 UTC to perform important network maintenance in our primary data center. Your Planio account will be unavailable for a few minutes during this maintenance window.

Overview

The goal of the Green Fuel Cell Project (GFC) is to build a hydrogen fuel cell system that utilizes local resources and electrochemical reactions to produce an electrical/power source.

Objectives of the GFC include:

  • Using materials that are greener and more cost-efficient than materials used in traditional combustion-based engines
  • Using recycled materials to build the cell
  • Employing the process of the hydrolysis of water for hydrogen gas
  • Build a system that can be used in conjunction with other power sources that UCSD uses, connecting it to the micro-grid or be used in smaller-scale applications, such as powering a cell phone
