H2 is an engery vector, such as electricity or gasoline. However, H2 is not an energy source. It must be produced with the help of an energy source.
At ambient temperature, hydrogen is a gas.
H2 is without taste, smell or colour.
Hydrogen is produced in largest quantities from natural gas and water:
At this time, hydrogen is principally used in chemical processes such as: ammoniac, methanol, petroleum refining, hydrogen peroxide, hydrogenation of margarine, etc...
In the future, we anticipate using hydrogen as a fuel as it emits no polluting agent when it burns with oxygen.
Water-based hydrogen is part of a renewable energy system, becuase water is reproduced when hydrogen is used to produce energy.
Example:
The only product of hydrogen combustion is water, in the form of vapour:
H2 + 1/2O2 - H2O
The same results are obtained when fuel cells are used.
