In this episode, we discuss hydrogen fuel cells as a potential replacement for rechargeable batteries.
Hydrogen fuel cells offer advantages in several key areas. The episode highlights that fuel cells produce only water as a byproduct, contrasting with the toxic materials found in batteries, which can lead to pollution upon disposal.
Furthermore, hydrogen fuel cells boast a longer lifespan and greater energy capacity compared to batteries, which require periodic replacement and more frequent recharging.
However, the text also acknowledges the risks associated with hydrogen storage due to its high pressure and flammability.
