Answer 1

The correct answer is Renewable sources of energy

Key Points

Green Hydrogen

This technology is based on the generation of hydrogen — a universal, light and highly reactive fuel — through a chemical process known as electrolysis.
This method uses an electrical current to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen in water.
If this electricity is obtained from renewable sources we will, therefore, produce energy without emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
Green hydrogen is hydrogen produced by splitting water by electrolysis.
This produces only hydrogen and oxygen

Additional Information

Lead-acid batteries

These are made up of a stack of alternating lead oxide electrodes that are separated from one another by layers of porous separators.
When fully charged, the electrodes are separated by a porous separator.
Every one of these components is immersed in a highly concentrated solution of sulfuric acid.
Historically, it is the first type of rechargeable battery to have been developed.
