Abstract

This chapter presents a brief discussion of different types of energy resources and emergence of electrolysis. Both the advantages and disadvantages of traditional fossil fuel are presented along with the benefits of water electrolyzer. Further the types of electrolysis and requirements to improve their performance has been discussed. We presume that the authors will get fundamental idea on energy issues and requirement of alternative energy resources for future sustainability.
