A team from Australia (University of New South Wales) made the first bicycle powered by a hydrogen fuel cell. Model gave the name Hy-Cycle. The maximum speed is 35 km / h. Bicycling is able to drive without refueling 125 miles at an average speed of 20 km / h, according to Phys.org. Cycling is removable 2.5-kilorammovaya canister seasoned metal hydride. This method allows you to safely store hydrogen, if the bike is worth a long time without moving, for example in the garage during the winter. One kilogram of metal hydride is about 100 liters of hydrogen, so it is best if the canister will be supervised at that time while the bike is not in use. The fuel cell is needed to charge the lithium-ion battery, which is located under the seat.
