I see hydrogen as being more of a "battery" than a "fuel". That is because you don't just come across free hydrogen that you can capture and put in your tank. Instead you start with water and add then add the energy you expect to get out. You need to do that to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen. You only get back what you put in, usually slightly less.
Like a battery, it sits there until you charge it up then you get back what you put in minus its "percentage".
Laws of thermodynamics:
You can't win.
You can't break even.
You can't leave the game.
If my thermodynamics lecturer had put it like that it would have done wonders for my learning experience!
MINE TOO...WOWZA!!!!!
They turned science into a religion. Back in the day they said that heavier than air flight was impossible and then a couple of Brothers who didn't finish High School proved them wrong
Well, that is clearly wrong. Birds.
What I always said...😂
