Hydrogen technology for energy needs of human settlements

TL;DR: In the post-fossil fuel era, hydrogen is being considered as a synthetic fuel or energy carrier for the post fossil fuel era as mentioned in this paper, and it has many properties to commend itself: it compliments the nonconventional primary energy sources and presents them to the consumer in a convenient form; it is relatively inexpensive to produce; it can be converted to various energy forms at the consumer end with higher efficiencies than other fuels; and it is the lightest and cleanest fuel.
