You're living my dream. Hoping to be there within the next decade. Trying to mix science and permaculture to make for a carbon neutral life that comes with all the luxuries. Keep doing what you're doing
The world needs more pop pops (Grandfathers) like you. My dad was a tinkerer and a dreamer. He made is own fused cilica from a shop that he built himself in the middle of BFE North Carolina. He worked for a corporation called Dynasil in NJ back in the 60's-70s. I remember going to his friends houses and in their basements or shops it looked like yours. Thanks for the memory lane. It's funy you hit on a subject without saying anything about it. Big Petrol is holding back Hydrogen becasue it is a threat to the easy money and power they control. The other topic is Big Pharma (Lyme Disease). More money in treating than there is in curing. They sell you bandaids for aretial bleeding then offer a payment plan to source blood from a bank instead of just repairing the artery.
so now that people are bitching about gas prices and also bitching about diesel prices, the natural selection should be something like this right? you would think i mean.. now oil prices is going to be another thing, but Biden pretty much turned off the spigots of oil, all we would need to do is turn it back on and suddenly we would have plenty of oil to go around, but he really wants people to be desperate so he could look like our savior when all is said and done. you can't really be a savior if you are the cause of the problems.
You have the whole thing backwards. Hydrogen is being pushed by fossil fuel companies because currently they make 98% of Hydrogen using gas. Green Hydrogen is very inefficient. You only get back 30% of what you put in. In most circumstances it is better to use a battery. There could be some edge cases where you have to resort to Hydrogen but these are only for extreme uses. For cars it's definitely better to use battery. Sure waiting 30 mins to refuel on a long journey is annoying, but paying 4-5x as much is annoying too.
So, this is great info, all we need now is a info sheet of costs, material, where to buy how to copy the set up for in small scale for a family etc, maybe videos how to connect and set it all up. Not everyone has worked with this for 30 years and are that tech savvy... 😉 But it's great inspiration 👍
You don't have to convince me. I've been saying hydrogen is the fuel of the future. I would rather see a combustion engine on hydrogen instead of an electric motor.
I hope you’re still at it! Very cool to see your systems working, it’d be nice to get an update and see if you have any ideas for a smaller home system
great achievement. Loved the video with the assembly of energy storages. The only way for a sustainable future. still trying to see and understand the production of Hydrogen, if you or any one can enlighten more.
I'm totally going to have a hydrogen house when I get enough money. Living near the gulf we have hurricanes that cause power outages. It would be amazing if people adopted this technology.
Thank you for sharing my friend you are a true tradesman Journeyman teacher thank you again for you insite of application vary inspiring! It’s hard for thouse that forge the way!
Mirai 0-60 tested at 7.4 seconds. Easily beaten by a Prius or even a GT-86. Both of those are still slow. Whilst the engine may be more efficient, the hydrogen has to be chilled/compressed to fit in the cell (or the cell would have to be massively larger) so there is an efficiency loss in filling the tank/transporting if you can't make it yourself. Whilst it is really cool this guy is doing it himself, it is highly improbable for most vehicle owners to consider doing this unless they never want to exceed half the travel range from their abode. As I understand it, in Cali (the only place in the US that has hydrogen filling stations that are compatible) the price is over $30 per gallon. Where this technology does make sense is instead of lithium batteries for the home, powered by solar. Because it is much safer and doesn't degrade. I think hydrogen for vehicles is as much of a fad as CNG was. We had gov't endorsements here in New Zealand but hardly any pump stations were willing to take the extra risk and it faded into oblivion.
What an inspiration--and to think he (=Mike Strizki) has been doing this for more than 30 years is mind-boggling! I suppose the oil and gas folks running our energy grid have not yet figured out how to profit from solar hydrogen without also endangering their fossil fuel income streams. So sad I won't see widespread adoption of solar hydrogen in my lifetime. ☹
Did you consider a 660V fuel cell for the car? I assume the DC-DC converter saves equipment cost. Is there an economic prospect to match the motor and control circuit voltage to the fuel cell?
This is an impressive infrastructure you set up and an informative video. I assume you have some IP to protect and cant fully disclose parts of the process. Hence I understand if you can't answer some of the questions. May I know how many hours you get from the anodes? Do you use ruthenized titanium? What material do you use for the cathodes? How many hours do you get before oxidization is a problem? May i know the current density?
What would you say is the best material to transport hydrogen via a ‘trunk line’ or a large diameter pipe for a metropolitan use? I am into DYOR and I find your passion incredible.
I've been watching many videos on water electrolysis. The information I'm trying to find is how do you take the gaseous hydrogen and store it in a pressurized tank !!?!?!!!???
I don't think it's correct to say that H2 gas is inert though. Commercial H2 tanks are polymer lined, because metal reacts with H2 to form hydrides. Can you comment? Is it maybe that this particular steel doesn't react with H2? Can you send a link to an example of the propane tanks you used?
Probably because it would half the volume of the hydrogen and would need to be compressed. His tank farm would need to double. You could buy a small house for the cost of the tanks he currently has sitting there.
VOLUME! I can barely hear you. I will say that I am very impressed that you could get this concept to work with a backyard homebrew project. Imagine how well it would work on a large industrial scale!
Thanks for the video. Very inspiring, but I understand the Mirai requires a pressure of 10 000psi to fill the tank . How did you get those tanks to that pressure ? I’ve been looking into this and the only answer I’ve been able to come up with requires a Half million dollar compressor! Do you have a more affordable suggestion?
@@sheldonweber5216 I don't know how he's doing it but an oilless scuba tank compressor is only $1300-2500 that will easily go to 8000psi.

God bless you sir I have been dreaming of this technology to come to fruition since we went to the moon and used it to keep the astronauts alive... The Toyota Mirai proved it could be used for transportation. Anyways I can buy one of your hydrogen systems?
I would love to have a home system. How much $$ from scratch to self sufficient? If you are in New Jersey, I am pretty close. I want a new energy source.
I liked your video and feel your pain with people instantly scared of something new. I hope you can answer some questions below: 1. Does the Mirai use a 115kw+ PEM fuelcell to support the 113kw engine with instant power? 2. How many plates is the toyota Mirai cell? 3. I am looking at converting a boat from diesel to 100kw 48v electric and am thinking of 200kwh lithium + 20kg of hydrogen hydrite storage. Which fuelcell should I buy and carbon fiber hydrite tanks?
You'd do a lot better to ignore all the hydrogen and fuel cell stuff. Hydrogen is environmentally damaging and an unsustainable fuel medium. If you want backup for your boat; stick with a diesel generator to top up the batteries if you're stuck out on the water.
@@mb-3faze Hydrogen is clean when created from Solar and water. Hyrogen is dirty when extracted from Ammonia etc. Understand the difference in application. It is easy to create Hydrogen at home with solar and water.
@user-ky7iz6up1v No, neither. But are you?: joining youtube only 6 weeks ago. Follow the money is the best adage: wonder why there are so many videos on hydrogen being the 'fuel of the future'? It's because big oil are pushing it. Very conveniently they push the idea that hydrogen for vehicles and homes will all be produced from green electrons. However, some quick calcs will show immediately that a hydrogen economy will only be sustainable if the hydrogen is produced from methane - a very polluting process - and guess who will be happy to provide all the methane?
My suggestion is to put it into a 20/40' containers, give people a price & take orders,. Obviously the suppy chain and parts list has to out sourced to meet demand, your best option is likely Toyota or Hyundi. But please make this technology available for investment to any/every Car manufacturers. Good luck & Thank you.
Love the idea ,im obsessed with hydrogen myself just be careful, if you come up with anything new that actually increases output of efficiency, in telling you there's a Secret agency or something that tracts its progress. I had a unmarked SUV with tinted windows that are legally not allowed in New York state follow me 2 twice that there'd be absolutely no possible way that they would be going the same route as I. did and as soon as I posted that it's a failure even tho it really wasn't is made it stop.. Promise you i have no history of mental illness or anything like that. I just had a revolutionary idea and I have an NDA right now and I'm Pat and pending for hydrogen and Google knows about it because they're included somewhat pending the outcome but as soon as I got Google onboard the funny things stopped like the way my phones were acting that never acted that way. I have a firewall program called firewall AI that will notify you about connections trying to be made that are unnormal.. and I can go on for a little bit about what was weird was happening but there was definitely something going on because of my you know idea about hydrogen they don't want the public knowing that you can literally make a burnable gas from water essentially but it's not water exactly. salt and very pure water or sodium and there's other you know minerals etc etc but it could just throw the whole countries economy off if somebody produced A system that could produce enough hydrogen on demand to run there current vehicle intended for gasoline but find out it's actually running better on hydrogen gas.. Good luck too you! when I get my results for my patent pending application maybe I'll share my idea with you and you can maybe apply it I'd like to see it in practical use
How can I buy my own nozzle to refuel my Toyota matah and you said if the pressure is less then 10k psi it's ok to refuel? Im looking to build my own refueling station at home.
What method do you make hydrogen with? Alkaline electrolysis? Many plates in sure. Hundred/s. Stainless steel or something else? How do you separate the hydrogen in this huge production? I appreciate your work tremendously. I'm in awe. This is my dream. I'm about to install an hho generator into my car to increase gasoline combustion/flame speed.
I can answer your second question: if you place the electrodes in two connected beakers (it's a beaker that looks like the letter H), for example, one side fills with hydrogen while the other filles with oxygen. As far as storing that H...without watching the full video, I assume there's a compressor that stores everything into high capacity tanks.
Incredible project! How much did it cost to put it all together? How did you raise the money to buy panels, electrolyzers, compressors, fuel cells etc.?
You could use turbines but it's amazing how cheap it is. I made a setup with 10 24volt 15-18amp turbine motors (producing roughly 3400watts). 10 of these motors or permanent magnet motors cost $300. Though alternatively like how this man used solar, one could use $600 in solar. I just used wind power as it's 24/7 and stronger at night too (air molecules lose altitude rapidly as night to hot to cold increases turbine out put, but so does cold to hot). My setup was as follows: - Turbine: ~3400watts - No batteries Pwm Modulator 5x (two motors wired each regulator for 48 volts). - Produces Hydrogen at 75% energy efficiency by powering fuel cell. - Hydrogen gas is collected and pressurized in tanks rated 15k psi and I regulate it to top off at 12k. Think of how a basement water tank holds x amount of water, once it reaches 60psi it shuts off, this is the same concept but I programmed a valve to shutoff power to the compressor and Hydrogen cell once max set pressure is reached. Between a compressor, motors, and the cheap turbine of aluminum I built it cost me all in all $1100 all together. This system would fill tanks of hydrogen at roughly 1 gallon a day, however in terms of energy density it has an equivalent of 2.5-3x the drive miles/gallons. If you have a Hydrogen cell vehicle, then the efficiency jumps to 9x gal worth of gasoline meaning per day you could make a gas tanks equivalent of a sedan 👍 Best part in a turbine is you don't need to replace them at all really as opposed to solar panels every 8-12 years. And a new Hydrogen cell electrode cost $10 in bolts and small stainless steel 304-317 rated 2mm thick sheets. Best part is you could melt the scrap iron in large quantities and make your own steel (oxide steel or plain steel last about half as long but if your fine casting and making your own fresh material by recycling all it cost is some cheap charcoal or slag removing shale/limestone which one could also find pretty easily or make (charcoal is easy to make in bulk especially if your take brush and make charcoal (roughly need 1-5lbs charcoal per 100lbs iron scrap/pig iron). Overall my electrolysers last all day for about 1.5 months and all I do is make Hydrogen fuel for my riding mower and push mowers.
Great video,, Can hydrogen be produced using wood chip gasification process using wood waste in combination with solar to produce hydrogen 24hrs a day?
Gassifying wood chips will produce a cocktail of hydrocarbons. If you want to electrolyze anything, then water gives a noce clean and reversable reaction.This type of electrolyzer works on a liquid. If you put wood gas through , a much higher voltage is needed and an explosion risk is huge.
Great info & demo...I learned that refueling hydrogen from high pressure tanks makes a significant noise, and can be used to determine when the tank is full [I do not yet have a Mirai]. There is a slip of the tongue at 21:22 I think....regarding the [noisy] water-electrolyzer........says the hydrogen comes from the anode and oxygen from the cathode. I think that might be bass-ackwards and in reality the anode of the water-electrolyzer produces oxygen and the cathode produces the hydrogen. Maybe you were working on a fuel cell late last night; a fuel cell where the anode gets the hydrogen and the cathode gets the oxygen....
So glad I saw this. When I realized that we have had this tech for decades and haven't been using it, why? This is the answer to all of the worlds energy problems. I wish I had the means to go a country like Africa to set up a power plant similar to yours that would generate electricity and produce hydrogen. The hydrogen could then be used to power equipment to build roads, bridges, and homes. Hydrogen transport and transportation vehicles could allow peoples in remote areas to visit nearby cities and hospitals for supplies and medical checkups or transport goods from nearby cities and towns. A remote village could be supplied with a hydrogen fuel cell large enough to power the entire village and it could recieve its hydrogen from a power plant like you designed and transported via vehicles running off hydrogen fuel cells fueled with the hydrogen generated at the power plant.
The losses when converting to and from Hydrogen are huge. You only get about 30% efficiency. A battery is better in almost all circumstances. For a fixed use such as night power in a village a flow battery would be appropriate, charged by their own solar panels during the day.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 we live in a world where energy is free. But the sheer size of a battery it would take is far bigger than hydrogen. Hydrogen does not pollute to make the fuel cell, batteries take lithium, a rare metal that pollutes a lot for production. Hydrogen fuel cells don't degrade over time. There are times batteries are useful but those are mainly for small devices that take little power. But if your trying to power a remote village there is no way you can have a big enough battery. Plus experimental techniques have 60% efficiency. Still no where near batteries but the density makes it worth it for this sort of thing.
Mike is always a little loose with the facts. That Mirai has a 5kg hydrogen tank. 5kg run through a fuel cell can deliver 82kWh. The average home uses 27kWh per day, so 3 days, not 3 weeks.
This is all good stuff but the part about O2 levels in the atmosphere isn't true (@19.45). Photosynthetic plants are producing oxygen constantly. Also disease indigence is in no way related to atmospheric composition (it IS linked to air quality, but that is different).
It would be great to see the equipment that liquifies and stores the hydrogen. This is the biggest barrier to implementation. Do you have a feel for how much energy is consumed compressing a mole of hydrogen?
@@Will_CH1 well, not that huge, but ok. But this is less about the car, and more about having an entire house off-grid and independent from say, the goverment.
@@torothomassen9581 F,low batteries are probably the best way to store energy for a house. Electrolyzing hydrogen is a more complex process and the energy density is lower unless you compress it which consumes energy. For energy storage, hydrogen is best suited to mobile equipment, but it needs to be liquified. There is a company called Hydroxia that have a catalyst that facilitates hydrogen storage.
The whole system has very little to recycle even when it finally dies lithium ion batteries on the other hand have no recycling to speak of at the moment and we want to make hundreds of billions of lithium-ion battery and I probably misspoke it's probably thousands of trillions considering there's 8 billion people
NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO A SMALL CAR SHOW IN SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY HAD ALL ENTRIES PULLING 100 MPG. THESE WERE SIDELINE MECHANICS AND EVERY CAR GOT OVER 100 MPG. MOST CARS WERE OLDER MODELS, BIG, NOT TINY CARS.
I think it's high time you and I meet as we are both doing game changing technology dealing with hydrogen as there are more technologies dealing with water separation that for the time being are more efficient than what I am doing at 95-98% efficient which will make your system work far better than it does right now it's from a company called Hysata. Now that I have a funding source I'll be able to do all of the things I have been held back from doing in the near future due to lack of funding. With what we both know about hydrogen and it's many uses everything will be run on hydrogen and humanity will once and for all live in harmony with all living things on this planet and not dead set against them as hydrogen is what runs all life on this planet.
"Fast performance car" you say because its not carrying 2 tons of batteries eh? Lets see about that. 2023 Toyota mirai 0-60 9.2 seconds. Tesla model 3 3.5 seconds. The battery weighs about 850 pounds, thats .4 tons BTW. Oh and tesla is actually over 300 pounds LIGHTER than the toyota. The Toyota can power a house for 30 weeks? Being generous that's 185 kwh's. That works out to be 1.2kwh a day. average house uses 30kwh a day. The dc-ac inverter will use 1.2 kwh a day just being on. Not even half way through the video.
Without using the hydrogen car, how are you converting the hydrogen into electricity? Also, would it be more efficient to use the solar panels to make hydrogen then convert the hydrogen to electricity using a fuel cell instead of directly powering the house from the solar panels? I ask this because I've been told that solar panels are actually not very efficient. At the same time it looks like you're making the hydrogen using electricity from the panels anyways so that probably wouldn't make much sense. But I wonder if there's an invention that makes hydrogen without using electrolysis? I've heard of turning the sun into a hot sun beam using a parabolic mirror to split the hydrogen out of water & or gas so I'm very sure that it's possible!
I am building my dream home, I could not understand a few things about electrolysis and compressing hydrogen. I do have a lot of questions. How to DIY the system you made using parts from a scrapyard? How much would it cost to build a system like yours in 2023? Let me know sir. Happy that people recognise you for your accomplishment. People call me crazy if I mention about sustainable living.
How can I come aboard? My grandfather was working on hydrogen power back in the 70's and got his life threatened, had to shut the project down and had to move away. I would be honored to have an opportunity to continue his life work through your company.
We are building. Female addiction rehabilitation facility. I am vastly interested in making it the first hydrogen powered all female rehabilitation center. What do I do?

My suggestion is to put it into a 20/40' containers, give people a price & take orders,.
Obviously the suppy chain and parts list has to out sourced to meet demand, your best option is likely Toyota or Hyundi. But please make this technology available for investment to any/every Car manufacturers.
Good luck & Thank you.
Love the idea ,im obsessed with hydrogen myself just be careful, if you come up with anything new that actually increases output of efficiency, in telling you there's a Secret agency or something that tracts its progress. I had a unmarked SUV with tinted windows that are legally not allowed in New York state follow me 2 twice that there'd be absolutely no possible way that they would be going the same route as I. did and as soon as I posted that it's a failure even tho it really wasn't is made it stop.. Promise you i have no history of mental illness or anything like that. I just had a revolutionary idea and I have an NDA right now and I'm Pat and pending for hydrogen and Google knows about it because they're included somewhat pending the outcome but as soon as I got Google onboard the funny things stopped like the way my phones were acting that never acted that way. I have a firewall program called firewall AI that will notify you about connections trying to be made that are unnormal.. and I can go on for a little bit about what was weird was happening but there was definitely something going on because of my you know idea about hydrogen they don't want the public knowing that you can literally make a burnable gas from water essentially but it's not water exactly. salt and very pure water or sodium and there's other you know minerals etc etc but it could just throw the whole countries economy off if somebody produced A system that could produce enough hydrogen on demand to run there current vehicle intended for gasoline but find out it's actually running better on hydrogen gas.. Good luck too you! when I get my results for my patent pending application maybe I'll share my idea with you and you can maybe apply it I'd like to see it in practical use
My dream is to create hydrogen electric appliances with h2 as refridgerant. What do youvthink? I would love to know
How can I buy a home hydrogen fueling station since I don’t live in CA
I would like to see someone show how to build a small hydrogen refuelling station that could fit in or next to a garage
Let’s arrange an interview with him and Elon!!
So how you store and pressurize all this hydrogen ? I get all the good and bad in hydrogen and what not hydrogen
Please share detailed plans with me how i can build this on my own.
How many days of storage can one propane tanks store?
We need more conversion to step up the game of the hydrogen fuelcell technology for it to grow by leap and bounds.
Where do I buy fuel cell?
How can I buy my own nozzle to refuel my Toyota matah and you said if the pressure is less then 10k psi it's ok to refuel? Im looking to build my own refueling station at home.

What method do you make hydrogen with? Alkaline electrolysis? Many plates in sure. Hundred/s. Stainless steel or something else? How do you separate the hydrogen in this huge production? I appreciate your work tremendously. I'm in awe. This is my dream. I'm about to install an hho generator into my car to increase gasoline combustion/flame speed.
I can answer your second question: if you place the electrodes in two connected beakers (it's a beaker that looks like the letter H), for example, one side fills with hydrogen while the other filles with oxygen. As far as storing that H...without watching the full video, I assume there's a compressor that stores everything into high capacity tanks.
Incredible project! How much did it cost to put it all together? How did you raise the money to buy panels, electrolyzers, compressors, fuel cells etc.?
You could use turbines but it's amazing how cheap it is. I made a setup with 10 24volt 15-18amp turbine motors (producing roughly 3400watts). 10 of these motors or permanent magnet motors cost $300. Though alternatively like how this man used solar, one could use $600 in solar. I just used wind power as it's 24/7 and stronger at night too (air molecules lose altitude rapidly as night to hot to cold increases turbine out put, but so does cold to hot).
My setup was as follows:
- Turbine: ~3400watts
- No batteries
Pwm Modulator 5x (two motors wired each regulator for 48 volts).
- Produces Hydrogen at 75% energy efficiency by powering fuel cell.
- Hydrogen gas is collected and pressurized in tanks rated 15k psi and I regulate it to top off at 12k.
Think of how a basement water tank holds x amount of water, once it reaches 60psi it shuts off, this is the same concept but I programmed a valve to shutoff power to the compressor and Hydrogen cell once max set pressure is reached.
Between a compressor, motors, and the cheap turbine of aluminum I built it cost me all in all $1100 all together. This system would fill tanks of hydrogen at roughly 1 gallon a day, however in terms of energy density it has an equivalent of 2.5-3x the drive miles/gallons. If you have a Hydrogen cell vehicle, then the efficiency jumps to 9x gal worth of gasoline meaning per day you could make a gas tanks equivalent of a sedan 👍
Best part in a turbine is you don't need to replace them at all really as opposed to solar panels every 8-12 years. And a new Hydrogen cell electrode cost $10 in bolts and small stainless steel 304-317 rated 2mm thick sheets. Best part is you could melt the scrap iron in large quantities and make your own steel (oxide steel or plain steel last about half as long but if your fine casting and making your own fresh material by recycling all it cost is some cheap charcoal or slag removing shale/limestone which one could also find pretty easily or make (charcoal is easy to make in bulk especially if your take brush and make charcoal (roughly need 1-5lbs charcoal per 100lbs iron scrap/pig iron).
Overall my electrolysers last all day for about 1.5 months and all I do is make Hydrogen fuel for my riding mower and push mowers.
Though as a future idea I'd like to make a high voltage for efficient electrolyser but that'll be for when I can afford a Hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.
Great video,, Can hydrogen be produced using wood chip gasification process using wood waste in combination with solar to produce hydrogen 24hrs a day?
Gassifying wood chips will produce a cocktail of hydrocarbons. If you want to electrolyze anything, then water gives a noce clean and reversable reaction.This type of electrolyzer works on a liquid. If you put wood gas through , a much higher voltage is needed and an explosion risk is huge.
A fuel cell needs very pure Hydrogen to work and not corrupt the fuel cell. You can't use gasification.
Great info & demo...I learned that refueling hydrogen from high pressure tanks makes a significant noise, and can be used to determine when the tank is full [I do not yet have a Mirai].
There is a slip of the tongue at 21:22 I think....regarding the [noisy] water-electrolyzer........says the hydrogen comes from the anode and oxygen from the cathode. I think that might be bass-ackwards and in reality the anode of the water-electrolyzer produces oxygen and the cathode produces the hydrogen. Maybe you were working on a fuel cell late last night; a fuel cell where the anode gets the hydrogen and the cathode gets the oxygen....
or he could have it in a vaccum or using sound at the res freq lol who knows we can only guess or pretend we know
@@ambersmith6517 hmu please
I am the guy at 25:40 and I filmed apprenticed and worked on these systems with him.. It was a slip of the tongue lol.
So glad I saw this. When I realized that we have had this tech for decades and haven't been using it, why? This is the answer to all of the worlds energy problems. I wish I had the means to go a country like Africa to set up a power plant similar to yours that would generate electricity and produce hydrogen. The hydrogen could then be used to power equipment to build roads, bridges, and homes. Hydrogen transport and transportation vehicles could allow peoples in remote areas to visit nearby cities and hospitals for supplies and medical checkups or transport goods from nearby cities and towns. A remote village could be supplied with a hydrogen fuel cell large enough to power the entire village and it could recieve its hydrogen from a power plant like you designed and transported via vehicles running off hydrogen fuel cells fueled with the hydrogen generated at the power plant.
💯
The losses when converting to and from Hydrogen are huge. You only get about 30% efficiency. A battery is better in almost all circumstances. For a fixed use such as night power in a village a flow battery would be appropriate, charged by their own solar panels during the day.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 we live in a world where energy is free. But the sheer size of a battery it would take is far bigger than hydrogen. Hydrogen does not pollute to make the fuel cell, batteries take lithium, a rare metal that pollutes a lot for production. Hydrogen fuel cells don't degrade over time. There are times batteries are useful but those are mainly for small devices that take little power. But if your trying to power a remote village there is no way you can have a big enough battery. Plus experimental techniques have 60% efficiency. Still no where near batteries but the density makes it worth it for this sort of thing.
@@adrianthoroughgood1191 You work for big oil, yes?
Idea:
Hydrogen produced on-site at farms for their SUVs which tow cattle in trailers.
One full tank of Hydrogen in the Mirai can produce 30 weeks of energy for your house? How many Kwh can the Mirai produce in full tank?
Mike is always a little loose with the facts. That Mirai has a 5kg hydrogen tank. 5kg run through a fuel cell can deliver 82kWh. The average home uses 27kWh per day, so 3 days, not 3 weeks.
This is all good stuff but the part about O2 levels in the atmosphere isn't true (@19.45). Photosynthetic plants are producing oxygen constantly. Also disease indigence is in no way related to atmospheric composition (it IS linked to air quality, but that is different).
Hydrogen is the future
It would be great to see the equipment that liquifies and stores the hydrogen. This is the biggest barrier to implementation. Do you have a feel for how much energy is consumed compressing a mole of hydrogen?
But why would you want to liquife it? There is no need because you are not going to ship it anywhere.
@@torothomassen9581 To be a practical fuel in vehicles, it needs to be liquified. Otherwise the tankage is huge
@@Will_CH1 well, not that huge, but ok. But this is less about the car, and more about having an entire house off-grid and independent from say, the goverment.
@@torothomassen9581 F,low batteries are probably the best way to store energy for a house. Electrolyzing hydrogen is a more complex process and the energy density is lower unless you compress it which consumes energy. For energy storage, hydrogen is best suited to mobile equipment, but it needs to be liquified.
There is a company called Hydroxia that have a catalyst that facilitates hydrogen storage.
Could they make the technology a little more fun/ cool looking,like a 70 charger,56 ford,model A? That be cool
Years ago this technology was laughed at. I remember several videos on youtube. I wonder what happened to those guys?
They still laugh at it now.
this seems like hopium as well. I don't see any answers that we, the people can use it
The whole system has very little to recycle even when it finally dies lithium ion batteries on the other hand have no recycling to speak of at the moment and we want to make hundreds of billions of lithium-ion battery and I probably misspoke it's probably thousands of trillions considering there's 8 billion people
How much money needed to produce 1 kwh? Any calculation?
The whole point is that it's free... But you need the equiptment, that is a one time fee, as well as maitinance.
NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO A SMALL CAR SHOW IN SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY HAD ALL ENTRIES PULLING 100 MPG. THESE WERE SIDELINE MECHANICS AND EVERY CAR GOT OVER 100 MPG. MOST CARS WERE OLDER MODELS, BIG, NOT TINY CARS.
Mike do you offer any education or training tours? I would love to come over and spend a few days, to a week learning with you.
I think it's high time you and I meet as we are both doing game changing technology dealing with hydrogen as there are more technologies dealing with water separation that for the time being are more efficient than what I am doing at 95-98% efficient which will make your system work far better than it does right now it's from a company called Hysata. Now that I have a funding source I'll be able to do all of the things I have been held back from doing in the near future due to lack of funding. With what we both know about hydrogen and it's many uses everything will be run on hydrogen and humanity will once and for all live in harmony with all living things on this planet and not dead set against them as hydrogen is what runs all life on this planet.
I just have to ask can someone post a hyperlink of this half a million dollar electrolyzer that you're talking about I got to see this
it must be possible to avoid storing the hydrogen in a tank. Why not use it directly from the hydrogen generator?
"Fast performance car" you say because its not carrying 2 tons of batteries eh? Lets see about that. 2023 Toyota mirai 0-60 9.2 seconds. Tesla model 3 3.5 seconds. The battery weighs about 850 pounds, thats .4 tons BTW. Oh and tesla is actually over 300 pounds LIGHTER than the toyota.
The Toyota can power a house for 30 weeks? Being generous that's 185 kwh's. That works out to be 1.2kwh a day. average house uses 30kwh a day. The dc-ac inverter will use 1.2 kwh a day just being on.
Not even half way through the video.
22:05 Hindenburg zepelin
Without using the hydrogen car, how are you converting the hydrogen into electricity? Also, would it be more efficient to use the solar panels to make hydrogen then convert the hydrogen to electricity using a fuel cell instead of directly powering the house from the solar panels? I ask this because I've been told that solar panels are actually not very efficient. At the same time it looks like you're making the hydrogen using electricity from the panels anyways so that probably wouldn't make much sense. But I wonder if there's an invention that makes hydrogen without using electrolysis? I've heard of turning the sun into a hot sun beam using a parabolic mirror to split the hydrogen out of water & or gas so I'm very sure that it's possible!
How can I get this?
I am building my dream home, I could not understand a few things about electrolysis and compressing hydrogen. I do have a lot of questions. How to DIY the system you made using parts from a scrapyard? How much would it cost to build a system like yours in 2023? Let me know sir. Happy that people recognise you for your accomplishment. People call me crazy if I mention about sustainable living.
You don't build hydrogen stuff from scrap. It's very expensive to do safely.
How can I come aboard? My grandfather was working on hydrogen power back in the 70's and got his life threatened, had to shut the project down and had to move away. I would be honored to have an opportunity to continue his life work through your company.
Look into the link and go to his website you can get in contact with him there
I'm enginering.. be a dream to meet you. Work together makes the world better.
