Experience the automotive technology of the future by building and driving your own hydrogen fuel cell car!

How it Works

The latest generation of the H-racer, H-Racer 2.0, allows you to watch the process of electrolysis and the conversion of hydrogen into electrical energy! Both the car and the hydrogen refueling station have transparent casing and LED lighting to showcase the science. This design has garnered numerous awards, including: Time Magazine’s "Best Inventions", Business Week IDEA, Metropolitan Home "Design 100", ID magazine annual review, and Business 2.0 Bottom Line Design Awards.

Preparing to Teach

Educators can seamlessly incorporate these fuel cell kits into the classroom by starting with basic concepts. Simply initiate a classroom conversation about the increasing significance of renewable energy and the contribution of hydrogen fuel cells to a sustainable future. Next, have students follow the step-by-step instructions in order to construct their fuel cells. By building their own fuel cells, students will gain hands-on experience with renewable energy technology. Powering these small devices will demonstrate the practical applications of hydrogen fuel cells and their role in sustainable energy solutions.
