The Honda clarity is an electric vehicle, but instead of batteries it generates it´s own electricity by means of an electrochemical device called a "fuel cell", this fuel cell uses Hydrogen as an energy supply, you add it at a station just like you would do with gasoline, when added to the cell it will act as a power plant.

The hydrogen is fed to the anode, and by means of a catalyst (usually platinum or some other VERY expensive meterial) strip the ions (protons) from the electrons, these charged particles have to get to the cathode, but since the electrolyte in a fuel cell is not a conductor they have to travel around it, this migration is an electric current.

The exhaust of the clarity is water.
