No it can't. H produces 52,000 BTU/lb 3 time the<br>energy of gasoline. It has the highest energy content<br>of ****ALL**** fuels.<br></blockquote></div><br>But energy density can also be measured in terms of volume, in which case Hydrogen has one of the worst energy contents. Hydrogen either takes up too much volume or must be massively compressed/refrigerated. Good old gasoline is the reigning king of energy density per unit volume for uncompressed liquids (at normal human temperature). Biodiesel is a very close second, which is very encouraging, provided that we make it from waste products, instead of the corn that poor Mexicans would like to feed their kids, running up their cost of living and making them want to support the terrorists who just blew up a half-dozen Pemex pipelines.
