Hydrogen does not produce any carbon dioxide when burned or used in a fuel cell - just water. So it is clean and efficient. Unfortunately, carbon monoxide is produced when hydrogen is produced from natural gas (in the steam reformation of methane), so it isn't really that green if it produced from fossil fuels, which is how it is done currently on an industrial scale. The only really carbon-free way to make H2 without producing carbon dioxide is by splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen gas. If we could do this efficiently with sunlight, this would ideal. Right now we don't have a way to do this efficiently and at low cost.

Are hydrogen fuels the alternative?
Hydrogen fuels could be an alternative if we come to a point where we can solve all the dangerous problems with hydrogen. Hydrogen fuels would be a good alternative but at this point and time hydrogen is way to unstable, so for now electric and ethanol are the way to go for an alternate fuel source.
What percent of energy is gained by alternative energy?
About 55%to60% of energy is gained by alternative energy.
Where can I learn more about alternative energy?
The Alternative Energy website has a newsletter with all the latest technologies and advances in alternative energy.
