The problem to be resolved is an efficient way to produce the Hydrogen fuel. This is done efficiently in Iceland with geothermal power. Hydroelectric would be another way. Nuclear power might be another, albeit more hazardous way.
Bottom line you could refuel a Fuel Cell vehicle in 5 minutes. Having to be close to a power cord is very limiting -- to urban high-density areas with short travel distances. |
There is a company just a few days ago that claims they can make EV batteries that can be charged in 5 mins. EV cars already have the distance issue sorted out for passenger cars and it keeps getting better.
They will solve the fast charge issue before hydrogen would become a thing.
