Two of the problems with making a clean fuel are how to store it and how to transfer it.

Batteries can drive land vehicles, some large ships, and in some instances even propel flight. At this point in time, a necessary goal is to produce fuel that will not disrupt our natural settings such as will happen to the Alaska coast and to our national parks after this upcoming inauguration.

We need a fuel that is spontaneously generated without being a part of our food supply. A fuel that does not require vast amounts of clean water to process; in fact it turns the water used into a hydrocarbon. A fuel that does not require fertilizer or one that does not cause nitrification of the soil and a subsequent harmful runoff. A fuel that does not increase carbon emission. A fuel that does not require any change of the engines that use gasoline, diesel or jet fuel. A fuel that actually starts out as water and turned into any of our standard fuels without drilling and can be made anywhere there is good available sunlight.

Well, there is one company that appears to be on the right track — Synhelion.
