Hydrogen-based energy production involves the use of fuel cells or the direct combustion of hydrogen (a particular case being hydrogen combustion in internal combustion engines). Direct hydrogen combustion is still in the testing phase, with challenges arising from its energetic properties, which continue to be a difficult factor. For instance, hydrogen has a low calorific value (about three times lower than methane) in its gaseous phase, which is the phase where combustion occurs, a very high combustion speed (ab...
