System boundaries (red line) schematic for liquid fuel carbon balance. For biofuels, because biogenic carbon is automatically credited within a product lifecycle, the boundary effectively excludes vehicle end-use CO 2 emissions. Broadly speaking, two approaches have been used to examine the greenhouse gas (GHG) impacts of biofuels.

Hydrogen is a versatile energy source that has a key role to play in the energy transition process and therefore in climate protection. The pressure plate forms a gas-tight and water-tight seal around the stack housing. After all, it is one of the most efficient ways of storing and transporting renewable energies.
