| Ironically, the H2 technology is one of the key points in Bush's energy plan. They sticky points have been and continue to be fuel storage and availability. People forget that it wasn't all that long ago (50-60 years) that you could not get gasoline is many rural parts of the country.
People don't want to pay to put in hydrogen fueling stations until there are cars to fill, and people don't want cars until there are stations to fuel them...
An interesting use of the H2 source is the fuel cell. I read recently that several companies are developing "multi fuel" fuel cells, so that the vehicles could use H2 when it's available, and gas when it isn't. |
