The amazing fuel station which is called “Oasis” was unveiled by BMW Designworks in collaboration with Shell. It is currently on display in Hanover, Germany.

The station looks simple and clean basically because all mechanical parts have been hidden from customers’ view. Apart from the futuristic look, customers are welcomed by a large digital display which tells the refueling process as well as price and refueling time of the hydrogen fuel.

Shell’s Hydrogen General Manager said, “We are pleased to have collaborated with Designworks in the development of a new hydrogen dispenser that will allow us to provide customers an improved hydrogen experience. It will not only make refueling seamless, it will also help make hydrogen fuel an even more attractive option in the future”.

This is beautiful, very soon water will be used as fuel by disintegration of the hydrogen and oxygen,
The hydrogen can be used as the car fuel while the byproduct being oxygen can be stored in a separate tank in the car which the owner can sell to hospitals or other places it can be used.

this are countries that think forward all the time, not naija where the senate house is thinking of embezzling more money by having its own media firm in the house to prevent media houses from covering them

Too much energy is required to break water down into Hydrogen and Oxygen. According to the currently accepted laws of physics, there is no way to extract chemical energy from water alone. Water itself is highly stable—it was one of the classical elements and contains very strong chemical bonds. Its enthalpy of formation is negative (-68.3 kcal/mol or -285.8 kJ/mol), meaning that energy is required to break those stable bonds, to separate water into its elements, and there are no other compounds of hydrogen and oxygen with more negative enthalpies of formation, meaning that no energy can be released in this manner either.

Most proposed water-fuelled cars rely on some form of electrolysis to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then recombine them to release energy; however, because the energy required to separate the elements will always be at least as great as the useful energy released, this cannot be used to produce net energy.

This is the kind of intellectual argument I will love to see on Nairaland.

This possibly marks the beginning of the end for oil and hydrocarbons as sources of energy. Their more than a hundred and fifty years reign is slowly entering into twilight stage. As it once happened to coal now it's the turn of hydrocarbons. Nations are investing heavily in clean and renewable sources of energy - wind, solar, cold fusion, bio-energy etc - and expanding their economies to new dimensions. The visionary leaders of the UAE saw this coming and had a plan to take their nation off the oil grid by 2020 and they are succeeding.
We had our opportunity with oil. It was a curse rather than a blessing to us-greed, mismanagement, environmental degradation, ethnic hegemony, corruption and ineptitude followed in the wake of our adventure with oil. Now the bell is tolling. The idiots we call leaders are still in snooze mode.
