Nevada:New Hydrogen fuel research

Professor demonstrates new hydrogen fuel system

"Northern Nevada energy consumers can be excused if they have a sense
of "sticker shock" when their power bills come due following the
holiday season. Or, that they have a feeling of powerlessness as the
price of gasoline climbs to $3 per gallon. They wonder: will the days
of the $1 tank of gas ever return?

Thanks to research done by a University of Nevada, Reno professor in
the area of hydrogen energy generation, soaring power bills could
become a thing of the past. And, finding a power source for your car
that costs as little as $1 per gallon could also soon become a welcome
reality.

Manoranjan Misra, professor of materials science and engineering,
recently received a $3 million research grant from the U.S. Department
of Energy to continue his groundbreaking work in various forms of
renewable energy. Misra's current project focuses on harnessing
photoactive material from the sun to generate hydrogen. Hydrogen is
one of the cleanest forms of energy, and studies have shown that it is
33 percent more efficient than liquid fuels. Northern Nevada, with its
uncommonly sunny weather - with more than 300 sunny days per year -
could become the perfect hub to generate hydrogen energy, according to
Misra....."
