environmentally safe
Fuel cells are quiet
Obstacles
Fuel cells must obtain mass-market acceptance to
succeed
At present a large portion of the investment in fuel
Advantages of Hydrogen
Hydrogen resources are abundant in the Nation and the world. Hydrogen is a domestic fuel. Hydrogen is a clean fuel. Hydrogen is a flexible fuel.
Disadvantages of Hydrogen
Leakage of H gas will have detrimental impacts on the stratosphere. n explosion cannot occur in a tank or any contained A location that contains only hydrogen Storage is really tough because hydrogen is such a low density gas Distribution and infrastructure needs to be refurbished to cope with hydrogen, which can effect metals by making them brittle Use in fuel cells requires catalysts, which usually require a component metal.
Hydrogen Safety
Hydrogen Safety Colourless and odourless Low ignition energy High flame temperature Invisible flame in daylight conditions Leak may self-ignite Wide range of Lower Explosive Limit to Upper Explosive Limit
durability.
