I think the glolbalwarming can have a solution from taking the hydrogen from water, by efficienty electrolisys.
And I inform aboute the Gearturbine (as a power plant), power by barr, with retrodynamic dextrogiro vs levogiro effect, an non parasitic looses system, and over-unit engine. To see deatils:

That brings this gadget to mind:

Though if I understand this product, you're on the power grid to generate hydrogen...

Is an efficient power plant, than can make the electrolisys cheap, and take the hydrogen from water.

There's no net gain if the electricity that converts the water to hydrogen/oxygen comes from a conventional (coal, oil) power source, of course. Adding one more step isn't the ultimate goal--though converting water to hydrogen can have many uses. The welding use, for example, is just more convenient...

Not sure if this one got through - but as I said, last, you can also use water in a combustion device (an application denoted at aquagas's site). As with a gasoline engine, it's very likely it takes a small bit of electricity in the process of the combustion (and separation) but can then use that reaction to generate a bunch of electricity. Simple.
