1. 2 by water electrolysis in 1800, and in 1874 J. Verne wrote "Water decomposed into its primitive elements, and decomposed doubtless by electricity, which will then have becom a powerful and manageable force ... Yes, my friends, I beleive that water will someday be employed as fuel, that hydrogen and oxygen, which constitute it, used singly or together, will furnish an inexhaustible source of heat and light ... I believe, then, that when the deposits of coal are exhausted, we shall heat and warm ourselves with water. Water will be coal of the future." From: Verne, J. The Mysterious Island; France, 1874.
