Scientists call for Major Renewable Hydrogen Initiative
Report Shows Emerging Resource is America's Clean and Affordable Answer to Dirty Air, Blackouts, Rising Gas Prices and Foreign Oil Dependence See solar- powered hydrogen demonstration motor model in action
WHAT: Scientists and experts to call for a national commitment to a major energy policy initiative. Findings and recommendations of joint energy policy study will be publicly released. Hydrogen, generated by renewable energy resources, is the most sustainable, secure, healthy, economic, environmentally friendly and socially compatible new energy option, according to extensive analysis by leading energy policy, academic, and trade association experts and organizations.
