  • You've probably heard something about hydrogen. You may know hydrogen can be used to fuel vehicles, but did you know that clean, abundant hydrogen is used safely all around you every day? "Hydrogen: Nature's Fuel" shows hydrogen at work in warehouses, golf courses, and even breweries. The hydrogen used in these applications is made in a variety of ways from domestic sources. Hydrogen truly is nature's fuel. With hydrogen, we have the opportunity to create our own clean energy future.

    Modern technology can be used to farm methane with your kitchen waste in two one cubic meter plastic containers. You can compress those methane fully automated into a light-weight, installable propane tanks for charging your Aptera in the backyard 7/24. If you don't use them to charge your Aptera, you can use them to cook your food or warm your house as well. All kitchen waste will become fertilizers eventually, which you can sell/donate to vertical/roof-top organic farms around metropolitans.

    @16:22 This guy is speaking the truth. Listen to what he says and you'll understand why names like Salter, Meyer and Mayne have been left out of this conversation and video. If an on demand splitter can be installed in a pump station then the same splitter can be added to the vehicle. No need for storage if used immediately. Of course that would eliminate the opportunity for a lot of money to be made.

      @xtdyuoz123 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, this guy is wrong. It would be completely cost inefficient. To fill a hydrogen car of 5kg of H2 in 3 minutes (current average), you need a flow of an average of 28 grams/second (actually, current standards of peak flow rates are of 60g/s, because the flow of H2 cannot be constant, but let's ignore this for simplicity purposes). A kg of hydrogen contains 33,3 kWh of energy (LHV), so 28g contain about 1kWh. Filling 1kWh per second means a power output of ... 3,6 MW. This is ridiculous for several reasons :
      1) You would need a 3,6 MW eletrolyser, just for charging 1 car. Such an electrolyser costs millions, and will work only a fraction of the time, i.e. when vehicles are charging, so id would be a high CAPEX asset running at very low use rate.
      2) Imagine a car plugging itself to the grid, consuming 3,6 MW instantly for about 3 mins, then plugging out... No electrical distribution grid is able to withstand such harsh power consumption variations, let alone doing this for thousands of vehicles charging at the same time.
      3) You still need to compress the hydrogen, and assuming you have no buffer storage you'd need a ridiculously powerful compressor
      4) All your auxiliaries (H2 cooler, dryer, etc.) would also be designed to withstand the high variations
      In short, it is much more efficient to have all your infrastructure downsized by several orders of magnitude, smooth out all these processes and to store H2 before distributing it.
      Bonus point : you can't just add H2 distribution points beside traditional fuels for safety reasons. There are safety distances between the infrastructures required by regulatory authorities (usually several meters, depending on where you live).

      Two things; No need to use electricity. Use heat, and there is many massive waste heat sources. Think about a nuclear power plant. You may have 4000 MW of thermal power, but only 1500 MW of electrical power. The remaining 2500 MW is completely wasted. You can produce hydrogen with thermochemical water splitting that requires heat. Only one example of many waste heat streams in energy production. Also solar heat can be used. Second thing is that there is also cases where even using electricity directly makes sense. This case is when there is over production of electricity in the grid, that is a common occurence when you have a lot of renewable production. Either you store with some efficiency, or you don't store at all, when you get the worst of all; 0% efficiency.

    As liquified H acts like a batter in its own right, imagine a large solar panel array next to the sea in North Africa. This could probably double-up as a desalination plant? Use the solar generated electricity to split the H from the sea water. Although electrolysis is not particularly efficient, it doesn't matter as the solar panel array would be focused on generate H from sea water and compressing/liquifying it. The transport the liquified H around the world. Remember, electricity can't be transported over wires more than about 500 miles. This to me is the core of the Hydrogen Economy. EV cars may still be around for a long time as the battery tech improves and there is already a fair amount of charging station infrastructure. However, can use H for trucks and all heavy transport, industrial applications, heating homes and so on.
    Although I am not a fan of Globalism, there is a benefit to having relatively poor countries around the equator be the focus of the large solar array farms to generate the H. It's good if those poor countries benefit and increase their wealthy through the export of H.

      Considering batteries don't bother to use Nickel or long lasting durable material, and instead people focus on electricity density instead would make batteries less than desirable to the average person. If companies focus on making batteries last longer on the material side first it would allow more and more people get into them because they don't have to replace as much. This, also, means less and less overall waste and heavy metal poisoning of the ground from dumps and mining.

      Hydrogen as a component of water has no energy.
      It is separating the the hydrogen into a substance which wants to recombine with the oxygen, that confers energy upon it.
      This requires at least as much energy as you can get from the hydrogen, as a fuel.
      Storing the hydrogen is effectively storing that energy.

    The problem was being able to setup a way to run powerlines to major population centers was not cost feasible.
    But what if instead of moving the power across to a populated areas you instead put the electricity into ocean water and produced Hydrogen that you could then put into ships and deliver anywhere in the world.

In the end we must ask is the overall power cycle logical.

Fuel cells will continue to develop for space and niche markets, but I predict their use will remain limited.

      I had the opposite experience. The more I had studied battery tech thinking it was the future, the more I felt like it has a wall that it will hit. The biggest is the materials required and how we would be unable to provide a battery operated car to everyone needing one. On the other side of that, you have hydrogen. You can burn it or battery cell it. It can use technologies from both combustion engines and EV's with very limited engineering to meet the gap. Hydrogen Fuel cells are more efficient than combustion vehicles now even after production and distribution of hydrogen. While hydrogen is not as efficient as a battery operated EV it is more available and the byproduct of hydrogen is water. The only issue with Hydrogen is the lack of infrastructure. EV's piggyback off of the Electric grid so much of what they need is already there. However, there is much more to developing a Hydrogen network which can also piggyback off the grid, but there is storage and delivery and in some cases filtration depending on the source of H2O that they use. Nuclear is quite a ways off just because of restrictions involving it. Nuclear will not likely end up as a domestic fuel source in our lifetimes but would be used to bolster the demands of our domestic energy demands.

However, it all went south when they finally tried to implement the grand idea because of the enormous technical issues. Technical issues some of which will never be solved without a gross ongoing economic overhead. Nope! hydrogen has a place; but, not in ground transportation; perhaps in commercial aircraft and/or seagoing cargo ships; but not in trains, trucks or automobiles.

      Yeah, that's a long debunked conspiracy theory about fossil fuel companies. If BEVs are the future, existing Oil companies will be making most of their money from EV fast charging, industrial chemicals, and biofuels. Oil companies have the best locations for refueling or recharging. They will have MW fast chargers that will allow most EVs to fully recharge in about 5 minutes.
      Until lithium ion batteries became affordable, hydrogen fuel cells seemed like the only realistic way to electrify our transportation system. Unfortunately, hydrogen from water electrolysis is net negative energy and affordable hydrogen is dirty. Batteries are just way more efficient than hydrogen fuel cells even if battery energy density is crap and battery recycling sounds unrealistic considering how lithium ion batteries from our electronics are "recycled" via combustion in Southeast Asia or Africa.

    About 16 years ago I had one of the large construction management and engineering firms working on a project I was developing. The same group was also working on BP hydrogen fueling stations. How many are there out there? The problems with hydrogen fueling infrastructure have not been solved in all that time. Do you think it will be now? Dream on. It reminds me very much of nuclear fusion for energy. This has been going on at least as long as I have been alive (over six decades). Not there yet. Almost. For the last five decades.

    I have ran my truck on hydrogen and gas together.
    It changed my gas mileage from almost 10 mpg to almost 12 mpg. That doesn't sound like much. I understand that. I will let a mathematician fortune out the percentage of increase.
    Before you do this, be absolutely sure about the safety of using hydrogen and safety of hydrogen itself.
    As a help to anyone wanting to try hydrogen, DO NOT try to compress it and store it. Together with oxygen, hydrogen is explosive. Even if you compress the mixture into an oxygen tank, IT WILL EXPLODE. You have to have a very efficient separator to get the oxygen out of hydrogen. This makes hydrogen flammable, about like gasoline only it has more energy per cubic foot than gasoline.
    Hydrogen burns faster than gasoline. So as you introduce hydrogen and oxygen into any fossil fuel engine, you can feel a tiny amount of power increase. Therefore you must be careful as to how much you add. It can increase engine wear if you don't know what you are doing.
    So be careful out there. Learn about hydrogen safety and apply what you learned.
    Most og you will be okay if you do this.
    I do not recommend this for everyone

Did some work in Boston on a weekend. Fuel pump went out and couldn't start vehicle. Flipped switch on fuel cell, vehicle started and he drove 140 miles home on just the fuel cell. Used a gallon of water. There quite a few individuals with cars converted to hydrogen for fuel.

    The hydrogen systems used on buses don't work properly in the northern US states in the winter. The cold temps prevent the systems from operating well enough to generate enough hydrogen. The Chicago Transat Authority were give a couple of hydrogen buses to try out but it was winter and they took them out of service after a few weeks. They shipped the buses to Toronto with the CTA name still on the buses. Remember that heat is energy and the better fuel is propane because it's 37 percent hydrogen and burns hot and very clean and is 104 octane. Propane is found naturally underground mixed with other games such as butane and methane which is natural gas. Only about 30 percent of propane is sourced by cracking a barrel of oil in the refinery process. LPG propane is the world's most popular alternative fuel for cars and trucks.

    I hate it when they call Hydrogen an energy source. It's a battery. Critics complain that we can't store the excess energy from solar or wind to use when we need more, but Hydrogen can be used for this. When they call it an energy source, then they use fossil fuels as the base instead of electric hydrolysis and they march right past the green solution.

Or you could store that power in batteries at 85% efficiency, or use the electricity directly. Doesn't make sense to use the less efficient method of energy storage.

    Being on the cusp of a radical improvement like lith-ion to graphene batteries brings with it an obvious problem from the short term consumer perspective relating to electric vehicles. Why buy the old technology today when the new technology is just around the corner? It is hard to imagine that the problem of 'immediate obsolescence' will not create an enormous and legitimate disincentive to switch now. It seems the smart thing to do would be to wait ten years. But how does that notion interface with our dire climate change timeline? It would be very useful to know what the exact points of obsolescence would be. Could current charging stations be used with the new technology, for example? Could your 'old' EV battery be replaced with a 'new' graphene one without replacing the entire vehicle? Bringing such answers to common knowledge does seem as important as it could be, and therefore pressure against these questions being premature seems appropriate.
