Hydrogen fuel today is far dirtier than thought, researchers say
- stonlyb 5y agoThis is a critique of natural gas derived hydrogen. It's also an argument for specific use cases where hydrogen is optimal and for using renewable energy to catalyze hydrogen creation. It's actually a pro-hydrogen article IMO.

- ohiovr 5y agoYes it sure is. It is also very inefficient with the best precious metal catalyst based membranes reaching less than 70% efficiency. To add more insults to this terrible idea the fuel it uses must be unbelievably pure or else you get to junk your very expensive car.
