Is hydrogen future No.1 clean energy source?
Can hydrogen really become No.1 source of clean energy in the future? Well, still difficult to say but there is definitely a huge potential.Hydrogen, unlike fossil fuels, burns clean, meaning there are no greenhouse gases that cause climate change and air pollution. This means that from an environmental point of view hydrogen remains one of the best energy sources that would allow switch to clean energy future.The most recent breakthrough research comes from the scientists in Japan who have successfully split water into hydrogen and oxygen using light and meticulously designed catalysts with almost 100{f24b02adee2102ff0c5f5079c50862fc8ba5fa53f8615b567037555463da2377} quantum efficiency.This gives hope that the scalable, economically viable hydrogen production could be well achievable in years to come.
