Hi Don,
I have never seen any calculations on energy usage for hydrogen production.
When you say most of the energy is destroyed, I may assume that for every
energy unit used to produce hydrogen, less than half is recoverable? Is the
lost energy simply converted to heat during the electrolysis?
Gunnar.
