Hydrogen has been called the ‘energy source of the future’.   It is very versatile and can be used as a clean source of energy for electricity, heating, transport and industry.   As a source of energy, It is fantastic in that it produces no carbon dioxide (CO2) when burnt for energy – only water and heat!   When I first discovered this, I was awe-struck.

What are we waiting for?  Well, actually, nothing.  A lot of research is being done at the moment into converting the natural gas supply to our appliances, for example our cookers and boilers at home, into a gas supply of hydrogen mixed with natural gas.  Eventually, hydrogen-only appliances could be the requirement for new equipment sold to us.
