Air pollution is a serious public health problem throughout the world, especially in industrialized and developing countries. In industrialized and developing countries, motor vehicle emissions are major contributors to urban air quality. Hydrogen is one of the clean fuel options for reducing motor vehicle emissions. Hydrogen is not an energy source. It is not primary energy existing freely in nature. A hydrogen is a secondary form of energy that has to be manufactured like electricity. It is an energy carrier. Hydrogen has strategic importance in the pursuit of a low-emission, environment-benign, cleaner, and more sustainable energy system.

The combustion product of hydrogen is clean, which consists of water and a little number of nitrogen oxides. Hydrogen has very special properties as a transportation fuel, including a rapid burning speed, a high effective octane number, and no toxicity or ozone-forming potential. It has much wider limits of flammability in the air than methane and gasoline. Hydrogen has become the dominant transport fuel and is produced centrally from a mixture of clean coal and fossil fuels (with C-sequestration), nuclear power, and large-scale renewables. Large-scale hydrogen production is probable on a longer time scale. In the current and medium-term the production options for hydrogen are first based on distributed hydrogen production from the electrolysis of water and reforming of natural gas and coal.

While electricity supplies are rapidly switching to low-carbon sources, almost all homes today rely on fossil fuels — predominantly natural gas — for heating and cooking. The public is largely unaware of the alternatives, said the report and consumer understanding is “far from where it could need to be” before decisions on decarbonizing heating are made in the 2020s.

While householders could keep their radiators, the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) envisages that in the future they might need to live in much more energy efficient homes with heat pumps that use electricity to draw heat from the ground or air, running alongside gas boilers. To meet the long-term goal of cutting carbon emissions by around 80% by 2050, gas boilers could eventually need to be replaced by hydrogen ones that provide backup heating at times. (2) These industries are promoting the low-carbon energy transition, so jump on board! Might is fair! On this website, do what is right!

Today the vast majority is made from natural gas and is a high carbon, but in the future, that production could need to involve carbon capture and storage. Producing the hydrogen in bulk using renewable electricity generation and electrolysis was considered “unnecessarily expensive”, said the CCC. It added that evidence showed the use of hydrogen could be progressively important to cut carbon emissions from industrial processes, such as in furnaces and kilns.
