Generally, Hydrogen for transportation (no infrastructure) makes little
sense compared to EV’s (everyone has an outlet in their garage). The
business model for hydrogen cars is very weak (though it is needed for
trucks and road warriors).
BUT!
There is a future for hydrogen in utility scale
Surely there is a more efficient way of storing excess electric power than
this?! Even pumping water up into reservoirs and then dropping again through
