ABSTRACT

Hydrogen is a clean fuel with minimal impact on the environment and ecology. Its availability from the hydrogen carrying items and its conversion into water upon oxidation in exothermic reaction makes it a potential substitute to the fossil fuels. The concerns for protecting environment and sustainability of flora and fauna make it inevitable to look for clean energy sources. Hydrogen has emerged as a solution to these problems. This chapter details the prospects of hydrogen as a fuel for power generation. A brief discussion about the methods for getting hydrogen and methodologies for using it for power generation is presented herein. It also describes the challenges posed in vast utilization of hydrogen in power generation and mobility solutions.
