Ashworth (BYH Class of 1946) (Rachel). ~ ~ ~ ~ BYU 1950. Licensed nuclear engineer. "I worked most of my 43-year career in advanced energy, 21 years of it as supervising engineer over advanced engineering at a large San Francisco-based energy company. We built and operated for 1,000 hours a 100-kilowatt pilot fuel cell power plant with financial support from the Electric Power Research Institute. The company also operated for several years a fuel cell power plant of a different type that supplied power to San Francisco's city offices. I evaluated, with our natural gas vice president, an opportunity to take the company into the hydrogen pipeline business. We did conception work and evaluations of fuel cells and hydrogen many times. Based on experience, the technical and economic challenges and problems of creating a viable system of hydrogen production, delivery, vehicle storage, fuel cell vehicle propulsion and safety are formidable. They are individually unsolved and collectively may be unsolvable without as-yet-unknown major breakthroughs. Another big clincher against this system being viable any time soon is the false justification for it. It is claimed to replace our dependence on fossil fuels. But fossil fuels are currently the only source of hydrogen that might possibly make the system viable. Making nonfossil-fuel-based hydrogen sources comparably attractive is as unsolved and collectively unsolvable as the hydrogen vehicle system itself. I think the hydrogen vehicle idea is a pipe dream that has to be played out for political reasons alone." ~ ~ Clinton Paul Ashworth (@March7, 2003) ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS OBITUARY: Clinton Paul Ashworth, 80, passed away Sunday, May 17, 2009, due to complications of cancer.
