Where does C02 free hydrogen gas come from?

It’s no longer a question whether hydrogen will have a major impact on the automotive industry, but rather an accepted fact that it will. Volvo’s and Daimler’s recent announcement* of joint efforts in developing and manufacturing fuel cells is the latest sign of the importance of hydrogen for energy storage. But how is hydrogen produced, where does the gas come from, and what environmental impact will this production entail? After all, it is pointless to produce hydrogen using energy that will leave an environmental footprint. Not to mention, the fresh water needed for hydrogen production is

The first tests of wave power at Runde are now accomplished and the wave power buoy WaveEl 3.0 is towed to Fiskåholmen

Waves4Power wave power plant at Runde has produced power since June 2, 2017. The aim of the Runde demonstration system was proof of concept and to gather important data for the development of WaveEl 4.0, Next Generation and serial production of wave power systems. The plan was from the beginning that all tests would be completed before Christmas 2017 and that the wave power buoy WaveEl 3.0 would then be taken up for review and analysis.Due to damage to the anchoring lines of the WaveEl 3.0 buoy we have now chosen to tow the buoy to Fiskåholmen earlier than planned. We are now making a
