 Genepax Generates Electricity with Water & Air Genepax Co Ltd has unveiled a new breakthrough fuel cell system “Water Energy System (WES),” that uses water as a fuel and does not emit CO2. The system uses Genepax’s membrane electrode assembly (MEA), which contains a “material capable of breaking down water into hydrogen and oxygen through a chemical reaction.” During a press conference at the Osaka Assembly Hall on June 12, 2008, Genepax demonstrated a fuel cell stack with a rated output of 120W and a fuel cell system with a rated output of 300W. In the demonstration, Genepax powered the TV and the lighting equipment with a lead-acid battery charged by using the system.  Although the production cost is currently about ¥2,000,000 (US$18,522), it can be reduced to ¥500,000 or lower if Genepax succeeds in mass production. The company believes that its fuel cell system can compete with residential solar cell systems if the cost can be reduced to this level.
