Exploring the Future of Alternative Fuel Vehicles: The Ninth Grove Fuel Symposium

The video highlights alternatives to fossil fuels showcased in London's Trafalgar Square as part of the Ninth Grove Fuel Symposium. It aims to educate on the application of fuel cells, especially in vehicles. Engineers discuss the promising future of hydrogen bikes, which could be mass-produced in 18 months, capable of traveling 160 kilometers on 140 grams of hydrogen. However, challenges remain in economically extracting hydrogen without producing CO2, as current methods are not yet viable on an industrial scale.
