Yeah well, its making the hydrogen thats the hard part. I wonder what the 
energy loss is when pulling it from water, must be massive. Still, might be a 
good use for that big tidal plant...

Oh, they're definitely motivated by self interest, but that's fine by me.  I 
was a H2 skeptic but my opinion got turned around when I learned how 
environmentally benign this could be, provided we can generate H2 w/o using 
fossil fuels...

Interesting, not unlike Tesla. Its a good point, the only way we'll ever get 
hydrogen infrastructure is to have a bunch of the cars...

 Toyota to share its fuel-cell car patents with the worldPublished:
Wednesday, January 7, 2015

Sharing is caring for Toyota, which announced yesterday that it would make
6,000 of its hydrogen-powered fuel-cell car patents available free of
charge. The patents include rights to technology and information on
fuel-cell stacks, high-pressure hydrogen tanks and software control systems.

"When good ideas are shared, great things can happen," Bob Carter, senior
vice president of automotive operations at Toyota, said in a statement.

Toyota hopes sharing these materials will boost the number of refueling
stations for hydrogen-powered cars and improve infrastructure for these
vehicles as they are launched over the next five years (BBC News
