Hydrogen in cars is compressed gas, and operations happen at a much higher frequency. A lot easier to work out the kinks before going for the real deal (rocket launch vs consumer car refueling).
No comment on hydrogen as a car fuel overall, but compressed hydrogen and liquid hydrogen have completely different in handling requirements.
- smileysteve 4y agoThanks for following up, I assumed stations would get large volume liquid fuel; but it makes sense that transfer can me safer with in gas form for consumers.
