Product Description
This important and up-to-date printed digest provides a guide to hydrogen energy and fuel cell technology, including plans for a fuel cell car. This collection of documents and papers from federal agencies, including the Department of Energy, provides knowledge about ongoing research activities and highlights the potential of this amazing new technology. Hydrogen and fuel cells have the potential to solve several major challenges facing America today: dependence on petroleum imports, poor air quality, and greenhouse gas emissions. The Department of Energy is working with partners to accelerate the development and successful market introduction of these technologies. Hydrogen is a clean and sustainable form of energy that can be used in mobile and stationary applications. Fuel cells harness the chemical energy of hydrogen to generate electricity without combustion or pollution. Codes and standards ensure the safe use of hydrogen and fuel cells. The vision of a new energy economy based on clean, renewable hydrogen is described in the National Hydrogen Posture Plan document. The first steps toward the hydrogen future are already underway. President George W. Bush announced a $1.2 billion FreedomCAR and Fuel Initiative to reverse America's growing dependence on foreign oil by developing the technology needed for commercially viable hydrogen-powered fuel cells - a way to power cars, trucks, homes and businesses that produces no pollution and no greenhouse gases. America's astronauts have used fuel cells to generate electricity since the 1960s, but more work is needed to make them cost-effective for use in cars, trucks, homes or businesses. Using current technologies, it is too expensive to produce, store, transport and distribute hydrogen fuel, or to build fuel cell engines. Additional research and development is needed to spur rapid commercialization of these technologies so they can provide clean, domestically produced energy for transportation and other uses. Con

Cover looks promising but does not deliver October 8, 2008
If you are interested in building generators and producing hho this book gives you no direction towards that goal. It provides some interesting stats on production and the government's thoughts and figures on hydrogen energy possibilities, production methods, storage, infrastructure, etc., but it was a waste of money and I was very disappointed in it as it does not offer what i was seeking, design information, as the cover conveys.
