British Scientists 'Invent Artificial Petrol' That Could Cost around $1.50 a gallon Or Rs.14 a liter.

Good News?

From the deserts they came, to the deserts they will go back.

Poor Middle East Oil producing countries?

Hydrogen-based fuel produces no greenhouse gases so could help nations slash their carbon footprint
It is due to be available at the pumps in three to five years, According to ChinaDaily

While Dailymail Reports that "Scientists in Britain are refining the recipe for a hydrogen-based fuel that will run in existing cars and engines at a fraction of the cost of petrol.
With hydrogen at its heart rather than carbon, it will not produce any harmful emissions during combustion, making it cleaner, greener and cheaper." 
Professor Stephen Bennington, who led the team involved in the project, said: "In some senses, hydrogen is the perfect fuel. It has three times more energy than petrol per unit of weight, and when it burns, it produces nothing but water.
The fuel is expected to cost around $1.50 a gallon, or 19p a liter. Even with fuel taxes, the forecourt price is likely to be around 60p a liter – less than half the current cost. 

The fuel is expected to cost around $1.50 a gallon, or 19p a litre. Even with fuel taxes, the forecourt price is likely to be around 60p a litre – less than half the current cost.
At last I would like to say that this is indeed a great news or you can say it a blessing for humanity because petroleum is non-renewable resources and that day is not far when world will be out of petroleum and it will take millions of year to fulfill the loss. This artificial petrol will really do wounder to fight with price rise, Global economical crises and pollution.
