- No, it is neither renewable nor fossil fuel.
- Hydrogen is a secondary energy source that needs a primary energy source to be produced.
- It is as electricity.
- Both hydrogen and electricity are secondary energy sources that are produced either by renewable or fossil primary energy sources.

∙ 14y agoHydrogen is effectively a renewable resource. Although it is primarily isolated by the steam reformation of natural gas, hydrogen can also be isolated through the electrolysis of water. Being an element, hydrogen is neither consumed nor produced when it is obtained or used in these chemical processes.
Although hydrogen can be consumed in some nuclear reactions, the actual usage is insignificant to the total quantity available. A certain amount of hydrogen is also lost from the Earth's atmosphere into space, but this too is negligible.

∙ 12y agoYes, there's a near unlimited usable quantity of it, and it's reusable.

∙ 15y agoThis is probably assuming the hydrogen production is driven by wind energy which is renewable.

by Stephen dorsey
no because it is not reversible

Is hydrogen a fossil fuel?
Hydrogen is not a fossil fuel because it is renewable. Sources of energy that are non-renewable are considered fossil fuels
Is wire renewable or non renewable?
renewable
Is boimass renewable or non- renewable?
renewable
Is lumber or renewable or non renewable?
Renewable
Are minerals renewable or non renewable?
They're not renewable, they perish overtime!!
Is hydrogen renewable or nonrenewable?
renewable
How is hydrogen renewed?
No; hydrogen is not a renewable resource.
Is hydrogen a fossil fuel?
Hydrogen is not a fossil fuel because it is renewable. Sources of energy that are non-renewable are considered fossil fuels
Is hydrogen fuel cells fossil fuels?
no because hydrogen fuel cells are renewable
Are fuel cells a renewable or non renewable source of energy?
Fuel cells are a manufactured item and are not renewable. The fuel that is used in the fuel cells can either be renewable (alcohol, methane from waste digestion,hydrogen from wind or solar conversion of water) or non-renewable (Hydrogen or methane from oil and gas production, alcohol from industrial processes)
Why is hydrogen a renewable fuel?
Hydrogen is not a renewable fuel. It is a secondary energy source (or an energy carrier) that could be produced using another primary energy source. Hydrogen could be produced using either renewable primary energy source (e.g. solar energy), nuclear energy, or by using fossil fuel (e.g. natural gas)
Can hydrogen be produced from renewable sources?
Yes, it is (96%) produced by coal and oil, but can be made from renewable sources like wind or solar power!
Is Hydrogen a renewable or nonrenewable energy source?
Hydrogen is a nonrenewable source of energy when used for nuclear fusion (which is still not a technologically attainable power generation mechanism). When used as an energy carrier for oxidation (e.g. fuel cell, and internal combustion engine) hydrogen is not an energy source. In such applications, hydrogen is a man-made resource.
Is sea water renewable?
No. Trees and Plants are renewable, we can make more. We can not make more water, we will always have the exact same amount, unless a meteor, which contains small amounts of water, strikes the earth.
Is hydrogen power a renewable source or a non renewable source?
There are no natural supplies of hydrogen. It always has to be removed from something, and the commonest source is water (H2O). However, so far, there is no way to remove hydrogen from water that does not use more energy than the resulting hydrogen will produce. If a cheap way is discovered to separate water into Hydrogen and Oxygen then all our worries about global warming and peak oil will be over. A.K.A its renewable EDIT: correction: UV radiation naturally splits H2O molecules in the ocean, producing hydrogen and oxygen, which reacts with O2 in the air, forming ozone (O3). That is how the ozone layer formed. But yes, electrolysis of water to produce hydrogen is not very efficient at the moment. - Oscar
Are atoms renewable energy sources?
Yes. Hydrogen is. ( if it comes from water) NO Uranium is nor
Why is hydrogen not used as a fuel in homes?
1. hydrogen is explosive. 2. It is costly to manufacture, whereas non-renewable fuels are already created
