Hydrogen is a cleaner substitute to methane, also termed as natural gas. It is the most plenteous chemical element, accounting for 75% of the universe's mass. Water, plants, animals, and, of course, humans contain massive amounts of hydrogen atoms.

By combining hydrogen and oxygen atoms, hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity. To generate electricity, water, and small amounts of heat, hydrogen reacts with oxygen in an electrochemical cell related to that of a battery. There are numerous types of fuel cells available for a broad range of applications.

Limitation

  • Hydrogen Energy Is Expensive

  • Hydrogen Energy Is Expensive

  • It is not the most secure source of energy.

  • Difficult to move around

  • Reliant on fossil fuels.

  • The population cannot be sustained by hydrogen energy.

The world's insatiable energy appetite is faced with the difficulty of generating clean energy. The pressing climate emergency has prompted the engineering community to look into alternative solutions. Conventional renewable energy sources had also greatly aided the effort to achieve carbon neutrality and are increasingly being included in the energy mix. Because hydrogen produces only water vapour as a byproduct of combustion, it has enormous potential as a source of energy.
