Answer 1

Hydrogen fuel cells are cleaner and more efficient than traditional combustion-based engines andpower plants. Hydrogen and fuel cells can also be used in mobile applications to power vehicles and mobile power packs. The benefits of fuel cells are: Reduced greenhouse gas emissions

Answer 2

Explanation:

Advantages of using hydrogen as a fuel:

• Hydrogen is a clean burning fuel and does not produce fossil fuels.

• Generation of hydrogen is possible from sea water and can be easily transported after its production, thus, making it a limitless and renewable source of energy.

• When hydrogen burns, small amount of nitrogen oxide is released along with production of water. Installing special pollution control devices and controlling combustion temperature are some of the means that can be used to reduce the release of nitrogen oxide.

• Hydrogen may serve as a storage energy from hydroelectric, solar and other renewable sources.When demand for large source is low, the electricity generated can be used to produce hydrogen and stored for future use.
