HYDROGEN
Economic, abundant and produces near-zero emissions
In its simplest form, a hydrogen fuel cell creates electricity by combining hydrogen gas and oxygen to form water. The electricity is then used to power electric motors or is stored in batteries for later use. Hydrogen can be produced by several methods. Net life cycle emissions depend on the energy sources, typically natural gas or electricity, used for production. Electricity, clean water and warm air are the only byproducts at the “tailpipe”.
