Title : Will hydrogen be able, to solve the energy problems of the world?

Abstract:

Recently, there has been more and more talk about hydrogen in the energy and transport industry. There are some powerful government programs for its introduction. But is this the solution to our energy problems? Hydrogen is not, what many people imagine, an environmentally friendly energy source. It is a technical gas, which was used since the 1930s for a number of industrial applications. Like in the food and glass industry, and mainly for making fertilizer. Hydrogen has to be made first on earth, it might be, one far day, used as an energy carrier. But that will be rather expensive. Considering the conversion and transport losses, this does not make much sense, when knowing the facts and figures of "our" today`s existing energy infrastructure. If we really want to save the world, we have to start different.
