Developing Hydrogen Power in a Hydrocarbon Empire

Methods for turning hydrogen into energy have been known for over a century, but they are only now starting to reach the consumer markets. In addition to being environmentally friendly, hydrogen power is better in many ways than the conventional variety. This industry has its Russian "champions" as well. "Kommersant", for instance, has attempted to figure out why anyone would develop this technology in an "energy superpower".
