Hydrogen: Sustainability & Issues
Renewable Energy

Profitable Hydrogen?

Can hydrogen be made cheap enough to become profitable for mass production? At the moment it cannot. However, there and many advancements in the Hydrogen production issues. Scientific America is reporting that hydrogen production is getting less expensive.

Dr. Buxbaum- Hydrogen

In a recent sit down with Dr. Robert Buxbaum, we talked about Hydrogen and discussed production, cost and usability. Next week we will start to post this very informative interview with the doctor.

Hydrogen Issues

From an ecological standpoint, hydrogen, at the moment, comes primarily from the burning of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are not clean nor are they renewable. Even though the United States is spending a lot of money on research and development, the fact remains that there are virtually no hydrogen stations for people to fill up. There needs to be major technological advancements to truly make hydrogen feasible. The advancements in fuel cell technology grows by the day. The cheapest mode of car transportation today is fossil fuel gasoline.
