Hydrogen emits only water. The most pressing issue on the planet today is dirty emissions, which en masse are responsible for a huge proportion of the heating of the planet. Doesn\u2019t it make sense, then, to throw our hearts fully into hydrogen power for our vehicles? Well, as with so many of these issues, the answer is yes, and also, no. It is one of the pressing dualities facing humanity. How can we navigate this issue?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Hydrogen Pros<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Renewable and readily available: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite it being very difficult and energy-expensive to extract from water, hydrogen is a uniquely abundant and renewable source of energy. In fact, hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe. If we can work out a clean way to capture it, our emissions problems may be over.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>An efficient and clean energy source: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydrogen doesn\u2019t require large areas of land to produce. A demonstration of this fact is that space agencies like NASA have been working with hydrogen tech to produce clean drinking water for astronauts &#8211; in the confines of a spacecraft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Potentially more powerful than fossil fuel: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydrogen has the highest energy content of any common fuel by weight. According to scientists, high pressure gaseous and liquid hydrogen have around three times the energy density of diesel and a similar energy density to natural gas.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>More essentially efficient than other energy sources: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A conventional combustion-based power plant generates electricity at 33-35% efficiency compared to up to 65% for hydrogen fuel cells. The same goes for vehicles, where hydrogen fuel cells use 40-60% of the fuel\u2019s energy while also offering a 50% reduction in fuel consumption.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2021\/08\/W4V8953-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"An internal view of the hydrogen cell power\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><i>Drive shafts and rockers replaced with high pressure hosiery. Image: TOYOTA<\/i><\/p>\n<p><b>Almost zero emissions &#8211; reduced carbon footprints: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While in operation hydrogen fuel cells do not generate greenhouse gas emissions. This reduces pollution and improves air quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Fast charging times: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The charge time for hydrogen fuel cell power units is similar to fuelling up conventional internal combustion engine vehicles. Much quicker, in other words, than charging electric vehicles (EVs).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>No noise or visual pollution: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hydrogen fuel cells do not produce noise pollution like other sources of renewable energy, such as wind power. This also means that, much like electric cars, hydrogen powered vehicles are much quieter than those that use conventional internal combustion engines &#8211; and producing hydrogen doesn\u2019t mean wind or biofuel plants, either &#8211; which for some are an eyesore.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Extended usage times: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A hydrogen vehicle has a similar range as cars that use fossil fuels. This is superior to that currently offered by many EVs, which are increasingly being developed with fuel cell power units as \u2018range-extenders\u2019. Range and efficiency is not impacted by outside temperature either.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Off-grid access: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Local generation and storage of hydrogen could prove to be an alternative to diesel-based power or grid electric and heating in remote areas. This will reduce the need to transport fuels and offer a non-polluting fuel obtained from a readily-available natural resource.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Democratisation of power supply: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The development and deployment of hydrogen fuel cell tech could reduce dependency on fossil fuels &#8211; which could help reduce the impact on geo-politics of the oil industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2021\/08\/W4V8965-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The inner workings of a hydrogen fuel cell\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><em>Not quite a V8, but the Mirai\u2019s fuel cell and converter has a certain aesthetic appeal. Image: TOYOTA<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><b>Hydrogen Cons<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Hydrogen needs to be extracted: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It needs to be taken from water, via electrolysis, or separated from carbon fossil fuels. Both of these processes require a significant amount of energy to achieve. This energy can be more than that gained from the hydrogen itself as well as being expensive. In addition, this extraction typically requires the use of fossil fuels, which undermines the green credentials of hydrogen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Investment is required:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The infrastructure to efficiently deploy hydrogen fuel cell tech requires massive investment and political support to make happen. In the competing infrastructure market, electric battery tech is far ahead of the game. Maintenance requires specialist knowledge and training for mechanics, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adrianflux.co.uk\/hydrogen-car-insurance\/\">hydrogen car insurance<\/a> is currently only available through specialists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Precious metals: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Platinum and iridium are required as catalysts in fuel cells and some types of water electrolysis. This means that the initial cost of fuel cells can be high &#8211; and the environmental cost of extraction of these metals cannot be ignored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Storage and safety:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Storage and transportation of hydrogen is more complex than that required for fossil fuels &#8211; it is highly flammable too (but then again, so of course is fossil fuel).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Cost per unit<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The CPU of power from hydrogen fuel cells is currently greater than any other energy source. Even though it is more efficient than other forms of power once operating this is the fundamental problem facing roll-out of hydrogen fuel cell tech.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, the pros outweigh cons as we have laid out here &#8211; but underlying it all is that old devil called costs. Until the system of profit and margin changes (as it may have to), hydrogen fuel tech is up against it in the race to become the dominant clean technology. But then again &#8211; why does this have to be a race? All earthly beings are winners in the race toward lower emissions. How then can there be any losers?<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-influx-wp.adrianflux.co.uk\/uploads\/2021\/08\/W4V8997-scaled-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The frame and inner workings of the Toyota\" \/><\/figure>\n<p><em>Nerd out.
