Hydrogen Engines

Hydrogen engines are power generation systems that use hydrogen as a fuel source to produce energy, typically through combustion or electrochemical reactions. In a hydrogen combustion engine, hydrogen gas is mixed with air and ignited to create energy that drives pistons, similar to traditional internal combustion engines. In fuel cells, hydrogen reacts with oxygen in an electrochemical process to generate electricity, emitting only water vapor as a byproduct. Hydrogen engines are considered a cleaner alternative to fossil fuel engines, as they offer the potential for reduced greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on renewable energy sources. Their development is part of the broader effort to transition to sustainable energy solutions in transportation and other applications.
