Hydrogen or Fuel Cell -- Which Comes First? ... 7
Bruce Wood examines an expected and coming revolution for the American farm:
fuel cell usage and "growth" of hydrogen. Farmers, always on the look-out for
energy cost-savings and production improvement, may supply the sought-after
answer to the hydrogen/fuel cell dilemma in a classic chicken/egg fashion:
which really does come first? Cutting back dependence on foreign oil and
limiting production of greenhouse gases will be inevitable benefits of that
interesting question's final answer.
