Hello! This course is exclusively to answer the question if hydrogen is better than conventional fuels (Gasoline, Diesel, and Methane). We will go through some technical aspects of hydrogen properties. This course is easy to grasp thanks to a lot of illustrations and examples. With this course, you are able to start any career in hydrogen field either research, applications engineer or even journalism around this fantastic topic. It will also help you to identify plenty of opportunities available in the near future. This lecture is based on a lot of serious sources like International energy agency, US department of energy and some best papers in the field. After this course you will be able to discuss with facts around this wonderful topics. All the basics are being discussed. You will master the topic.
