No other power generating technology holds the same benefits that fuel cells offer, including high reliability and efficiency, negligible environmental impact, and security of supply. Fuel cells run on hydrogen - the simplest and most plentiful gas in the universe - although they can also run on carbon monoxide, methane, or even coal. Their applications are diverse, from powering automobiles, buildings and portable elec 606 $aFuel cells 606 $aHydrogen as fuel 615 0$aFuel cells. 615 0$aHydrogen as fuel. 676 $a621.31/2429 700 $aBarclay$b Frederick J$0622755 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910877123903321 996 $aFuel cells, engines and hydrogen$91425966 997 $aUNINA
