The main issue is storing of H2. Hydrogen gas has to be stored in a compressed state in a metal tank. This creates the problem of gas leakage that will endanger the driver. A solution to this issue is to use a H2 “on demand” system.

SUV Hydrogen Fuel Conversion Guides

Posted on March 29, 2019May 24, 2019 by Lautaro Martijez

To convert a SUV to run on hydrogen fuel, an electrolysis device would have to be installed on the engine. The function of the device is to extract hydrogen gas (H2) from water. We know that water is made from 2 parts hydrogen and one part oxygen hence its name H2O. When electricity is passed through water, H2 gas bubbles are produced.

The next phase is to vent the hydrogen gas collected into the air filtration system. The concept is similar to injecting nitrous oxide into the engine to generate more power. By diverting H2 into the combustion chambers, it will mix with the gasoline fume and produce a bigger explosion. This is because hydrogen gas is three times more … Read the rest
