13 eurocents/kWh hydrogen from Japan
FUKAI Environmental Research Institute, Inc., based in Ueda, Japan, has developed an innovative technology capable of generating hydrogen energy at the world’s lowest cost.
This newly developed technology generates hydrogen by adding aluminum or magnesium to what is known as “functional water” in the boiling state. The amount of hydrogen generated is 2.0L per 1g of aluminum or 3.3L per 1g of magnesium.
Thanks to this technology, it is possible to generate the amount of hydrogen required to generate 1kWh of electricity for a cost of merely 18 cents or so, the world’s lowest cost.
