Hydrogen hijacked
Claims are being made that hydrogen is not really a fuel and that the concept is inherently foolish. Correct, hydrogen is not a fuel. It is an energy carrier. Just like electricity, it is only as clean as its means of production; and only renewables can make it sustainable. On the second point, it is not necessarily the fuel cell that is foolish, but the people who believe that hydrogen holds the key to a future of clean and never-ending supplies of energy. Sustainability is not that simple. Make no mistake, the visions being mapped out for a hydrogen economy provide an excuse for the revival of nuclear and give environmental legitimacy to fossil fuels.
