To win your next Eco-marathon....
....try using Horizon's ultra-light fuel cells!
It seems almost impossible to imagine, but the standard fuel economy that competing Eco-marathon teams try to match is 3,000 kilometers per liter! That's similar to traveling 3 times around the equator with the same amount of fuel that a Concorde jet would need to reach the end of the runway! The Shell Eco-marathon challenges students around the world to design, build and test vehicles that travel the farthest distance using the least amount of energy, or achieve the highest possible fuel efficiency.
Horizon began operations in late 2003 and its fuel cells have started to be used in Eco-marathon since 2004, powering the Oxford University team entry.
With continuous improvement taking place over the past 5 years, Horizon is now able to produce the world's lightest and most compact fuel cell systems, with limited need for heavy and cumbersome peripheral equipment. If you plan to compete in the next eco-marathon, compare your options - and enquire today about the technical Horizon can offer your team!
