Welcome to the Hydrogen Age!

Why hydrogen?

Our civilization consumes carbon-based fossil fuels 100,000 times faster than they are being made available, raising many questions about global supplies and whether they are able to meet the world's fast-growing global energy demand. With geopolitical uncertainties in oil producing countries and insufficient oil refining capacity, our global economy is already under significant pressure. Oil is critical to the well-being of entire nations; therefore new technologies that can reduce the dependence on imported oil are becoming strategic. National security concerns are now encouraging scientists from all over the world to develop new energy technology solutions such as hydrogen fuel cells.

An even greater issue has to do with the consumption of oil itself. Fossil fuels contain carbon, and burning gasoline in our cars creates toxic air pollution in our cities and contributes to massive amounts of carbon dioxide being released into our atmosphere. Carbon dioxide accumulation is the cause of greenhouse effects and global warming. For more than 100 years, humans have burned tremendous amounts of carbon-based fuels, causing our atmosphere to heat up. Global warming can now be witnessed by increasingly violent storms, desertification, shrinking mountain glaciers, melting polar ice caps, changing ocean currents and rising sea water levels.

We are just starting to notice the effects. Our society needs a new and renewable fuel and hydrogen is the best solution for the long term.

Indeed, hydrogen is the most abundant element in our universe and carries the most energy per unit of weight. This carbon-free fuel can be produced either by using traditional or renewable power sources such as solar or wind power. Once captured, hydrogen can be converted back to usable energy in numerous applications, including cars. This means our every day fuel can be produced locally, and in unlimited quantities. When it is consumed in the fuel cell, the result is electricity and water. This water can then be used to produce hydrogen and oxygen, making the cycle continuous and natural, with no toxic emissions. There are many challenges to making this a reality, but it's only a matter of time... ...and human ingenuity!

Around the world, several "Hydrogen Highway" projects are being developed and over 200 hydrogen refueling stations have already been built to service the first fuel cell cars.

What is a fuel cell and how does it work?

A fuel cell is a device that can convert hydrogen to usable electric power. The fuel cell is an assembly of advanced material layers where hydrogen and oxygen react with each other to generate electricity and water, without any combustion.

Serious interest in fuel cells did not begin until the 1960's, when they were used as power for mans first missions to the moon. Although fuel cells still provide electricity and water for today's space missions, this unique technology is now aimed at promoting a global transition to renewable energy sources. Fuel cell cars that use hydrogen as fuel are called "zero emission vehicles." If fuel cell cars were to use hydrogen produced by renewable sources of energy such as solar or wind power, our fuel supply would be unlimited - and consumption of hydrogen through fuel cells would not create any waste nor air pollution.
