What would be the fate of large hydropower projects in next ten years from now?

Hydrogen cell is a very big contender as alternative fuel or energy source. High energy demand and price would compel the automobile industry to change their flow sheet soon, similarly energy promoters would cease to invest in large hydropower projects due to availability of cheap energy from hydrogen cell. Can we say that large hydropower projects and proposals have bleak future in coming years and we should go for smaller hydropower projects which can be completed in 5-6 years and also have small physical and financial layouts. Small hydropower projects can be planned on Total Integrated micro watershed basis to have least or Zero adverse impact on environment as well as settlements & existing infra-structure. By the time hydrogen cell and other alternative energy sources replace thermal & hydropower mix energy, the small hydropower projects can supplement the energy demand in shortest possible time frame.

And where do you think that hydrogen would come from?
As it stands, hydrogen CANNOT be a source of power, as no free hydrogen exist around us, only hydrogen bound to other atoms (in water and hydrocarbon) that requires energy to have the hydrogen extracted. Hydrogen is not a source of energy, it is a mean to carry that energy around.

Nickel Hydrogen Reactors After Twenty Two Years of Experimental Progress

Hydrogen Generator Gas for Vehicles and Engines Volume 9: Generator Gas: The Swedish Experience (Hydrogen Gas Generator) $31.96 Summarizes the scientific, technical and commercial information that developed during World War II. While the world’s fossil liquid fuel supplies were being used to make war around the globe Sweden, cut off from fossil fuels, converted 40% of its entire motor vehicle fleet to burning wood. The gas generator for motor vehicles was developed at an astonishing speed during the war years. This work wi…
