Hydrogen Fuel

The universe we reside on ,is mainly constituted of 75% Hydrogen approximately.Hydrogen is the simplest atom that has been found uptil now.It is not usually found in it's pure state.So,in order to purify certain amount of energy is required.Once manufactured,Hydrogen acts as an energy carrier and stores formed by other means.This drives us into a new era in automotive industry i.e,HYDROGEN FUEL.

In 1970,the chemist John Bockris coined the term Hydrogen Fuel.An important step regarding this technology has been introduction of device namely Fuel Cell.A fuel cell combines hydrogen and oxygen.Both convert energy produced by chemical reaction into electric power.Fuel cells are a promising technology.Many prominent car manufacturers like Volkswagon, Chevrolet have already employed the concept of Hydrogen Fuel.

In 2003,American president Bush announced a programme called Hydrogen Fuel Initiative (HFI) during his state of Union Address.This initiative supported by legislation in Energy Policy Act 2005 which will ensure provision of Hydrogen cars with the replacement of ordinary cars till 2020.

This technology has the capability of being highly efficient and recyclable as well.It has,by far,been most eco-friendly which will conserve our environment too.The exhaust given out by such cars is of staem which will not result in pollution and ensure a healthy environment.The overall efficiency of such cars is found more than that of ordinary cars.With the provision of pure Hydrogen,efficiency would reach upto 80% increment.

Hydrogen powered vehicles are more economical,from a costumers point of view.Much more safety can be attained by Hydrogen fuel as it avoids unwanted explosions caused by fossil fuels.

Hydrogen cars replacing ordinary one's is the need of the hour yet a distant dream.Hydrogen powered vehicles promise a bright scope in Pakistan.The time is near when such technology will swap the automotive industry.
