Comment on If we can use hydrogen to power electric motors, why can’t we use water to run a car?

Iirc the energy required to break down water into hydrogen and oxygen is greater than what burning the mixture produces, but in theory solar power might be a viable option to a certain extent.

Efficiency/viability would probably be nonexistent without some sort of miracle catalyst for the breakdown process.
