June’s monthly meeting featured a presentation by Dr. Evan Gray from Australia. Dr. Gray leads the Offshore Renewable Energy Systems research program in the Blue Economy Cooperative Research Centre and is heavily involved in the CRC’s activities related to hydrogen microgrids, including a bench-scale DC microgrid at Griffith University and the demonstration project in Hobart with a 700 kW electrolyser that will supply hydrogen for fuel-cell buses.
This presentation provided an overview of research undertaken by the BE CRC Offshore Renewable Energy Systems research program focusing on hydrogen, including the hydrogen microgrid currently being developed in Hobart before being taken offshore, and a study of the requirement for operating maritime vessels on hydrogen in Australian waters.

Edison generators and dynamos power plants and vehicles should be examined for power plants and vehicles. Permanent magnet motor as a generator powering brushless motors as generators with inverters and transformers to deliver high voltage AC power continuous peak power without fuel. . The permanent magnet motor as a generator is known as Edison's generator. Tesla bound Edison's generator with magnets all around the armature and used water to move the armature magnets and coils of copper wire.
A car that runs on permanent magnets and inverters to power 110 volt AC motor is an unlimited range electric power vehicles. Shell oil company invented the Edison generator powered electric cars but did not develop or market the cars and this patent is public property. Brushless motors as generators with inverters and transformers to deliver 110 volt AC power can use 20 amps and produce 140 amps 12 volt DC and inverters make this output 120 amp 110 volt AC power continuous peak power per dynamo.
