Almost, most hydrogen is produced in the break down of the rod cladding
under excessive heat. Not a good thing... When it happens it means
that something in your process is not going to spec..

IIRC, isn't hydrogen a byproduct of the nuclear generation process?
Can't they capture that?

tarts or farts?
If you can reform the methane into hydrogen for the fuel cell it would
work, but why not just use an internal combustion engine retrofitted for
CNG.
I am guessing that electricity to hydrogen back to electricity is cycle
they are trying to promote here.
Personally I prefer solar to electricity to an electric car, by passing
the whole hydrogen thing. Not sure storing energy in hydrogen is all
the beneficial of the hydrogen was originally derived from coal and
natural gas.
Now if it was nuclear – electricity – hydrogen – electricity, then we
are cookin’ with gas.

Why not just run the motor home off of methane? There are lots of old
darts driving them right?

That is already a big issue in CA. There are no simple solutions
to this
dilemma. There is no question that electric cars use the roads.
The fact
that they escape paying for the roads is problem we're going to
have to
solve some way.
