My intentions of posting the articles were not meant to promote Mantra, but strictly informational purposes.

Since you brought up "reference to mantra", I will relate them to what Mantra and others are working on.

As the articles point and you have pointed out H2 may be the source of our energy in the not to distant future.

The four main problems with H2 are production, transport, massage storage, and a safe infrastructure to reach the masses.

Many believe the single solution to all those problems might be formic acid.

New Pd-based nanomaterial catalyst breaks down formic acid to H2; boost for practical chemical H2 storage
September 24, 2015
Researchers at Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology have developed a simple method for producing a palladium-based nanomaterial that can spur the breakdown of formic acid (FA) into hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Its efficiency far exceeds that of any other reported heterogeneous catalyst, they say. They also found that their process produced carbon dioxide and hydrogen without carbon monoxide contamination, which has been a problem with other methods

.

In a paper in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, they suggest that the results open up new avenues in the effective applications of FA for hydrogen storage, including on-board storage for fuel cell vehicles.

If formic acid is determined to be the solution for those problems, new demand will new require suppliers.

Mantra patented technology (ERC) could make them a major supplier of formic acid in the near future.

Formic acid could easily be interrogated in our current infrastructure with minimum cost.

Mantra's patented working fuel cell could be the means to use, transport and store Hydrogen safely.

If hydrogen does become the energy of our future Mantra could have a major role in that future.

The future is unpredictable at this point, but many major companies do believe that formic acid will place a major role in our energy future and tiny Mantra already has a patented process to produce it of and a patented working formic acid fuel cell to use, transport and store it.
