Hydrogen does not occur in free form on Earth. The energy needed to free it from its chemical bonds can be used directly instead, making Hydrogen to be just an energy converter, possibly with environmental advantages, but definitely not an energy source. A water powered car is in conflict with the First Law of Thermodynamics. Though Hydrogen is the most abundant element on Earth's surface, it mainly is bond with Oxygen in water, one of the strongest chemical bonds known. This means that it takes quite a lot of energy to split water into Hydrogen and Oxygen, around 120 MJ...
