What is a Fuel Cell?
A fuel cell is an electrochemical system that
converts hydrogen and oxygen into water, and
the process creates electrical energy. There are a
variety of different types but all work in roughly
the same way:
•
Hydrogen atoms are separated into electrons
and protons
•
The electrons are redirected around a circuit
to power the application
•
The electrons and protons are reunited and
oxygen is introduced
•
Hydrogen + Oxygen = water! Unlike lithium
batteries the only byproduct of the fuel cell
system is simply H2O—making fuel cells one
of the cleanest energy solutions on the
market!

Why Fuel Cells?
• Very high efficiency (up to 80 %)
• Many different types of fuel sources
and supply methods
• Highly scalable design
• No pollutants!
• Low maintenance – no moving parts
• No need to recharge – instant power
when supplied with fuel

Hydrogen Economy
Hydrogen is the most abundant element in
the universe, the obvious choice to replace
our dependency on fossil fuels. It can
provide energy for all parts of the
economy: industry, residences,
transportation and mobile applications. It
can replace oil based fuels used for
automobiles and provide heat and power
to homes and communities.
On top of all this, hydrogen can be
produced from entirely renewable energy
sources as we try to demonstrate in our
Renewable Energy Education Kit and the
Horizon Energy Box.

Why we believe in Education Products
Maintaining a vibrant education and toy range is
something Horizon is passionate about. There are
so many reasons, but three key ones would be:
✓ Increases awareness just not of Horizon products
but of the amazing potential of fuel cell technology.
✓ Challenges young scientists to explore the
hydrogen science and perhaps inspires today’s
students to become the industry innovators of
tomorrow.
✓ Helps Horizon’s own development processes.
Making toys and games is about stripping down
the technology to its basics to build simple systems
that best illustrate the principles of the technology.
It’s a great discipline, helping Horizon to
understand the technology better and maybe even
providing some surprising insights that can be
integrated into more complex projects.

Junior Kits
With customers in over 65 countries,
Horizon's experiment kits have an
international reputation for quality,
educational content and award-winning
design.
Together with clean energy experts and
specialized educators, Horizon developed high
value educational content and teacher
manuals that bring renewable energy science
activities to the classroom.
All our products include a comprehensive
textbook (CD-ROM) covering renewable
energy science experiment manuals, teacher
notes and classroom guides, animated flash
demonstrations, and more. Our quality
content complements the award-winning
educational kits developed over the course of
8 years.

Advanced Kits
For hobbyists and technical
schools Horizon has
developed a portfolio of
advanced fuel cell products.
These range from metal
hydride cartridges and
desktop hydrogen refueling to
various kits for creating hybrid
technology.
By partnering with schools
and engineering competitions
we are able to constantly
refine our offering, supplying
more efficient hydrogen
technology and more flexible
integration platforms.

Toy Cars
Horizon’s RC range demonstrates the ease and convenience of hydrogen refueling as each comes with a
separate station that generates hydrogen through water electrolysis. Education-focused products like the
H-Racer, let kids build their own fuel cell car! From the gas tank, to the super capacitor to the fuel cell,
the science is on display. Electrolysis, ionization, electrical circuits, energy conversion— a host of
essential principles in one, cool toy. Then there’s our latest car, the i-H2GO, which does away with the
traditional RC control in favor of an easy-to-use smartphone app.

Product Customization
AIR LIQUIDE is the world's largest supplier of industrial
gases, including Hydrogen, with operations on all
continents. Horizon has worked to develop an internal
promotion tool, used among its 43,000 staff base around
the globe. Sales of the AIR LIQUIDE Minipak began on
December 2012.
After successfully introducing MINIPAK to camping /
outdoor channels in the US and Europe, leading
outdoor gear brand BRUNTON is now launching the
BRUNTON REACTOR, designed in cooperation with
Brunton and Horizon, and manufactured by Horizon.
Volkswagen will use customized i-H2GOs for their
“Think Blue” initiative– a project intended to encourage
the implementation of renewable energy and efficiency
improvements. The i-H2GOs will run in various
hydrogen fuel cell vehicle races held at events across
the Czech Republic. The winners receive their very own
i-H2GO!

Hydrogen Projects
Horizon, 3DClassworks, 1080 Education, YESA and HySA
Systems have joined forces to support Destination Zero
Carbon. Students from all over the world pit their wits,
creativity and technology acumen against each other in
a hybrid vehicle design competition. From RC cars to
full scale vehicles all ages and ability levels are catered
for in this groundbreaking project.
24h de St Jo is an RC car construction and racing
challenge, using Horizon’s H-Cell 2.0 fuel cell system
and hybrid integration technology. It’s been praised by
the French Minister for transport the organizers, St Jo
Lycée, are looking to expand the competition across the
channel to the UK.
In collaboration with the SHELL Eco-marathon
champions, Horizon has developed several
generations of ‘XP’ series stacks. Over the last 2-3
years XP-powered vehicles have been placing first,
second and third place, in some cases, consecutively.
