China: World's First Hydrogen Fuel Cell Tram Rolls Off Assembly Line

3. The way in which you get energy from Hydrogen is

from breaking the H2 molecule. Breaking that natural bond is the energy. So one needs a molecule that it can break in order to operate. Into the future, it would be extremely awesome to be able to essentially "recycle" the water molecule. Break the bond and then reuse the exhaust to feed back into the system. If someone can break thru a design that allows a closed system loop and manages to do so with a vehicle in a "smal", "light-weight" manner, it would then be the go to for fuel for many transportation vehicles. Could you imagine having a vehicle that doesn't require filling up on?

15 yrs ago when I was in college and taking environmental science course for my minor, hydrogen fuel cells were the "it" for future operating cars, trains, and planes. GE actually ran an entire plant from Hydrogen Fuel, completely self sustaining and "off the grid" from electricity. By using H2O as the molecule to break the hydrogen bond, and create energy. My point of drawback was that the fuel cell required fresh water to operate, and fresh water resources are already becoming limited; especially now with climate change effecting the earth. So, to use sewage as a means to breaking that bond is amazing. We seem to have plenty of that.

The fact that China is embracing technology and development of "alternative fuel" sources for their country, is going to make them a leader in the world for transpiration and general fuel needs. They will become the leaders of this century. Sadly, we have idiotic legislators who don't want to spend any money investing in alternative, clean fuel. We should be attacking this issue head on; treating it much like we did the space race ro the moon. Instead, we have climate change deniers sitting as the head of Senate committees for the Environement... We are willfully allowing this country to go to crap because of these backward asses!!! And all because they are bought by industry that refuses to acknowledge what they are selling energy, rather than selling a particular type of fuel. They really don't care if it's oil or sun, they just need to find a way in which they can make money from renewable energy sources.
