Hydrogen Energy

  • Hydrogen is the most plentiful element in the universe.
  • Hydrogen is an energy carrier, not an energy source. It stores and transports energy.
  • Like electricity, hydrogen can be transported to locations where it is needed.
  • It finds application in traditional gasoline powered IC engine for the enhancement of the efficiency of IC engine.
  • Hydrogen energy is utilized to heat homes and offices, to produce electricity, and to fuel aircrafts.
  • NASA has used liquid hydrogen powered fuel cell since the 1970s for space crafts.
  • Hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity and heat, and produce pure water.
  • New energy policy issue has paid attention to the application of hydrogen in transportation system.
  • Upon burning, hydrogen utilization does not produce any toxic gas as well as CO2; the only product is water vapor. Therefore, it also finds application as a fuel for ‘zero-emissions’ vehicles. Hydrogen fueled vehicles reduces the dependence on fossil fuel and conspicuously mitigate emissions.
  • Before hydrogen steps in the energy world as the biggest player, new facilities and infrastructure must be planned and built.
  • It can be produced renewably from various sources such as water, natural gases, hydrocarbon fuels, etc. via technologies like reforming, electrolysis, anaerobic digestion, gasification, etc.

Hydrogen as Renewable Fuel

In order to realize hydrogen as renewable energy carrier, it must be produced from renewable energy source. Renewable hydrogen is being produced worldwide via several ways: electrolysis, biomass conversion, reforming of fuel, etc. However, Defiant Renewables is focusing on reforming technology and anaerobic digestion of biomass for the production of biogas.
