'Artificial petrol' just for 90p per GALLON

British scientists 'invent artificial petrol' that could cost just 90p per GALLON (and there's no carbon).

Hydrogen-based fuel produces no greenhouse gases so could help nations slash their carbon footprint.
It is due to be available at the pumps in three to five years.

Artificial petrol that costs 19p per liter could be on forecourts in as little as three years.

British scientists are refining the recipe for a hydrogen-based fuel that will run in existing cars and engines at the fraction of the cost of conventional petrol.

With hydrogen at its heart rather than carbon, it will not produce any harmful emissions when burnt, making it better for the environment, as well as easier on the wallet.

The first road tests are due next year and, if all goes well, the cut-price ‘petrol’ could be on sale in three to five years.
