The scale of an orderly transition to solar -
hydrogen power plants, millions of «energy free»
homes and a carbon - free transportation system over a period of 25 years is doable and would cost less than waging energy waes.

While
hydrogen is feasible in
home power generation, it is not feasible, at least not in the 2030 time horizon, for
powering automobiles and other hydrocarbon - based transportation, he argues.
In its current state, he estimates that an individual would need to shovel the equivalent of a man's weight of sugar into a 250 - gallon fuel tank so that the E. coli - reactor could produce enough
hydrogen to
power the average
home for an entire day.

Then you can use it in fuel cells in your own
home to create the electricity you need on demand or fuel your
hydrogen powered car with it... no more grid losses... no more black outs... no more gas stations... no more oil imports.
Under
home hydrogen it was suggested that water could be broken up into water
hydrogen and oxygen in a
home - scale plant when
power was cheap and plentiful and these could then be recombined in a fuel - cell with regeneration of electricity as required.
Low - pressure
