ABSTRACT:
A method generates mechanical energy by storing water in a fuel-cell and a pressure equalization device. The water stored in the fuel-cell is electrolyzed into hydrogen gas and oxygen gas, which displaces the water stored in the pressure equalization device. The displaced water is fed to a hydraulic device to drive the hydraulic device in a forward direction to produce mechanical energy.
