Hydrogen Energy is currently more expensive than any other fuel source, there is also no existing infrastructure to accommodate a Hydrogen fuel cell. The process for extracting Hydrogen to be used also usually requires the use of burning fossil fuels, thus creating pollution. Then there is the fact Hydrogen is both hard to store and distribute.

It takes more energy to separate the hydrogen than we can get at the end.


What are some advantages and disadvantages of hydrogen fuel cells?

The advantages of using hydrogen fuel cells are that they are an alternative fuel to fossil fuels, like coal, oil and gas. Also, burning or reacting hydrogen with oxygen runs electric motors and it's only emission is water vapour. The disadvantages of using hydrogen fuel cells is that hydrogen does not occur naturally on Earth and thus is not an energy source. It takes a great deal of energy to extract Hydrogen from water. Hope this helps! :)

What are the disadvantages about hydrogen?

Hydrogen is very flammable and can easily explode. Look back the Hindenburg blimp that used hydrogen. Hydrogen burns very cleanly leaving just water vapor of a byproduct. Using Hydrogen as a fuel for cars sounds great except that you need to make it by splitting water into Hydrogen and Oxygen. That uses up as much energy as the burning of Hydrogen releases. In use as a fuel for cars, you can imagine the explosion when a hydrogen tank bursts and ignites.
