An Introduction to Hydrogen Energy
Due to the limited life span and negative environmental and health impacts associated with the use of fossil fuels, there has been an increased interest in the use of renewable energy sources such as hydrogen energy. Hydrogen energy is already widely used in the commercial production of liquid hydrocarbon fuels and synthetic chemicals through the Fischer-Tropsch catalysis method.
As compared with other renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, hydro, and geothermal energy that cannot produce liquid or gaseous transportation fuels, hydrogen energy can be stored as a gas or a liquid in a safe and efficient manner.
