Raymond Said:

is largest part of solar radiation is UV RAYS?, is source of biomass is sun?,is fuel cell stores the energy ?

We Answered:

No, UV radiation is not the largest part of solar radiation.

Not exactly, the sun is not the source of biomass. Solar radiation is the source of energy that is stored in chemical bonds that are released when biomass is burned. Biomass is an organic composition made on Earth.

No, A fuel cell stores no energy. It is a device that uses chemistry to make electricity. The energy is stored in the chemicals. You cannot recharge a fuel cell with electricity like you can a rechargeable battery. A non rechargeable "battery" is a configuration that includes the chemicals, but a fuel cell is a fuel cell even without its chemicals.

Why is Hydrogen Fuel Cell power said to be the cheapest, cleanest, and most renewable alternate energy source?

We Answered:

no, no, no, horses are the cleanest, cheapest sources of power.
of course, you have to ignore what they leave behind, that someone else has to come clean up.

Really, hydrogen is an energy storage medium, much like a battery.
it does not occur naturally, it has to be made.

either you use lots of electricity to break water apart, and thus are responsible for all of the CO2 produced when that electricity was created,
or you make it by separating hydrogen from methane, and are responsible for the CO2 created in that process.

it helps no-one to look at only part of a cycle, and claim it's really good.
