This is why hydrogen, while being less efficient that battery-electric, stands a chance. Convenience of 'filling up' in a minute is the killer feature of hydrogen, regardless if it's 50% as efficient as battery-electric. When said power is coming from a nuclear reactor, who cares?
- TillE 5y agoI remember hydrogen fuel cells getting major hype over 20 years ago, quite specifically in the year 2001. It probably started earlier than that. Since then, there's been approximately zilch in terms of commercial applications, despite numerous drawbacks inherent to lithium ion batteries. I'd bet on some novel alternative battery technology over hydrogen.
