H2 fuel cell or batteries?
« on: November 28, 2013, 09:48:22 PM »
I have been hearing speculation about hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicles and the "hydrogen highway" lately on the news.  But I think this article about a fleet of hydrogen fuel cell powered buses says a lot:

It sure says a lot on a potential expansion of hydrogen for the current time. I don't see how it can be better than just batteries. We have to focus on battery technologies. Water is not a waste that we want in Quebec when it's -30 C.

Hydrogen powered autos are always 10 years into the future.   From any point in time.
