Great post regarding Hydrogen system initiative by HPQ

The Trekhy was an autonomus power generator. It was producing hydrogen through hydrolysis then producing electricity through a fuel cell. From the information we have so far, they are describing the new system as an autonomous pressurized hydrogen delivery system, therefore, I believe, production of hydrogen through hydrolysis without (or maybe with or without) the fuell cell. If the vehicle is equiped with an hydrogen engine, it will probably not need a full cell, if its to be used for an electric vehicle, then it would probably need one.

This might be part of an explanation about the « pressurized » in the description.

 

It is also easy to figure out that a unit that would not include a fuel cell would be a lot less expensive.

@Renaissance:  I'm not certain of it but i believe there is at least another difference between the Trekhy and the system Novacium is in the process of creating for HPQ. I believe the Trekhy was not built to work under pressurized conditions.   From yesterday's NR; Targeting net-zero emissions by 2050, the focus is on the green, low-cost production of High Purity

by @JANNEMAN Hi Renaissance, Yes,pressurised system indeed. The hydrolysis produces hydrogen towards a buffer volume which feeds the hydrogen consumer which can be a fuel cell,a hydrogenengine or the two together. Between the buffervolume and the consumer you have the whole regulation system and throttle mechanism that is regulating the hydrogen feed to the power consumption needed
