I’ll have to admit that this is a tricky subject. Separating fact from fiction regarding the mythical water car, hydrogen cars and regular cars partly powered by HHO gas can make many people’s heads swim.

But, the problem with mixing up technologies is that the readers’ heads continue to swim afterwards. I’ll have to give the Muse paper its dues because it mostly got the article right. But, there are also a few errors that need to be corrected.

For instance, the official Daniel Dingel website says that the inventor’s water car is actually a hydrogen on-demand device for a standard automobile. This is a newer interpretation of older claims of a 100-percent water-powered car.

The Muse Online also calls a popular HHO eBook at “kit” which of course it is not, only a set of plans to build a kit. In the article the term “H2O powered car” is also used loosely so that the reader doesn’t mean if this refers to a 100-percent water car or a car partially powered by electrolyzed water. There is a huge difference here.

Like I said, this is a difficult subject to wrap one’s head around. But, in order to separate fact from fiction, the media does need to get the similarities and differences straight.

World Energy Solutions has just acquired H-Hybrid Technologies from the UTEK Corporation. H-Hybrid technologies is known for their patented line of hydrogen gas savers (HHO generators). The hydrogen gas savers electrolyze water on-demand to create oxyhydrogen fuel, which lowers emissions and increases fuel mileage.

According to CEO Ben Croxton of World Energy Solutions, “We believe the addition of this licensed technology will advance our goal of introducing our own system for fuel enhancement and emissions reduction for the OEM marketplace. We feel that combining these technologies with our existing technology will strengthen our intellectual property focused on improving fuel efficiency and lowering emissions in automobiles.”

So, in other words, this is a natural pairing since World Energy Solutions has been working on their own line of hydrogen gas savers for a while. Back in February 2008, World Energy Solutions announced that with their latest prototype they were able to reduce carbon monoxide emissions by 99-percent while increasing fuel mileage by an average of 24-percent.

Usually the companies that engage in the generation of hydrogen target either automobiles or home use, but not both. This is not the case with Generation H (or GH).

In fact, a company called Modern Technology Corporation likes the fact that Generation H is targeting both markets, so much so, that they’ve just purchased a 5-percent stake in GH. The first market for GH is retrofitting both cars and truck with hydrogen gas savers that reduce fuel consumption between 10 and 80-percent.

In addition, Generation H uses this same water electrolysis technology for commercial and residential power creation. With hydrogen gas savers becoming so popular with home builders and small time mechanics it was only a matter of time until corporations would become interested in this market as well.

In earlier posts, I had talked about Ronn H2GO, Ecomobil HFactor and Hydrogen Hybrid Technologies as the larger commercial players getting into or already into the marketplace. Add Generation H to this list as now the big boys have come to play in the hydrogen gas saver arena.
