| Summary |
"The hydrogen car has been proposed as the solution to our oil problems, but how would it work, and what potential problems are associated with it? This book addresses these questions, and provides specifics about current developments toward a hydrogen-based energy infrastructure." "What would a hydrogen infrastructure look like? Fueling stations could be small electrolysis plants that produce hydrogen from water. Photovoltaic cells could also be used at fueling stations to power for electrolysis. Hydrogen fueling stations have already opened in California, Washington, DC and Europe. The technology is being pushed by economics as oil prices continue to rise with dwindling supplies. This book offers the reader an informed look at the current state of fuel cell power and transportation technology, and where it's headed."--Jacket |
