If some one wants to their reduce oil consumption all they have to do is buy a diesel and run vegetable or bio diesel blends during the warmer months.
Then add water injection to their diesel engine to further reduce fuel consumption by up to 6%. (I tested it and saw about 4% improvement)
I don't understand why people keep turning toward pseudoscience alternatives when we have proven, well tested methoids to improve fuel economy.
I don't see how use of hydrogen will reduce fossil fuel consumption. Nearly all bottled hydrogen comes from natural gas or oil. The process for making Aluminum in the reaction mentioned isn't fossil fuel free and what ever chemicals used to react the aluminm are likely products of petro chemical companies.
