He said Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, who used to be the minister for water and power, praised the project and directed a subcommittee of the Cabinet to study its feasibility. The prime minister's spokesman could not be reached for comment. Shaukat Pervez, chairman of the Pakistan Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, praised Ahmed and said "this is a feasible project." His counterpart at the Pakistan Science Foundation, also a government body, hailed the engineer's work as "an extraordinary breakthrough" and said it would be examined carefully. Other scientists were distinctly less impressed with Ahmed's invention. "In a few short days, he has exposed just how far Pakistan has fallen into the pit of ignorance and self-delusion," prominent Pakistani physicist Pervez Hoodbhoy wrote in an op-ed in The Express Tribune newspaper on Friday. "No practical joker could have demonstrated more dramatically the true nature of our country's political leaders, popular TV anchors and famed scientists."

ISLAMABAD: In a nation thirsting for energy, he loomed like a messiah: a small-town engineer who claimed he could run a car on water. The assertion - based on the premise that he had discovered a way to easily split the oxygen and hydrogen atoms in water molecules with almost no energy - would, if proven, represent a stunning breakthrough for physics and a near-magical solution to Pakistan's desperate power crisis. ''By the grace of Allah, I have managed to make a formula that converts less voltage into more energy,'' the professed inventor, Agha Waqar Ahmad, said in a telephone interview. ''This invention will solve our country's energy crisis and provide jobs to hundreds of thousands of people.''

I remember reading in an old Nexus or New Dawn magazine years ago about a bloke here in Australia who had apparently invented a car to run on water - complete with schematics and all.

I note that ATS has a thread here for producing hydrogen from home and one here about another inventor of a "water car" found dead under mysterious circumstances.

Could this chap be onto something? Some high-profile individuals in his country think so.

its obvious that people that make money on gas, don't want someone to invent something that will mean that people wont need their gas any more.

I hear ya there - I work in the Oil & Gas sector.



i refuse to believe that we don't have the technology to have free energy for everyone. suppressed and forgotten, for money. always follow the money.

Seems Foster Gamble was onto something in "Thrive" then aye??.

Agreed - after reading the thread above about producing your own Hydrogen I have no doubt that some individuals have made some serious inroads into this field.

You raise some interesting points.

I wonder why the MSM would portray it as a "water car" then?

maybe a bit of political posturing going on!

I searched for articles you mentioned but I only found some wikipedia, this dubious "samosa" satire and a few YT videos. All of them are not trustworth.

Your first point, is it your thought or did you read this somewhere else? Running a car on water is not the point, I know but to get the h2o split up, use the H and then have enough energy aviable to run the motor and to charge the battery to provide more electrolysis is the hard point.

It would be nice to read the articles you found, could you post them please?

Dude, big difference between starting a motor on petrol and
using a less polluting fuel to run than filling up a 60 litre tank of fuel and using that fuel to run. That's why the oil and gas companies bend over backwards to stop these inventions.

Here is the thread I was referring to. The OP's YT vids and subsequent member comments were rather enlightening.

Yes...there was a guy in South Australia - late 70's - who converted an XP to run on water...appeared on this day tonight (or something) never heard about it again...

Some 'one' became very interested, and bought his patent...mmmmmmmmmmm
