PV Gap

Julian Said:

Why are we trying to develop hydrogen cars?

We Answered:

It's not an either-or scenario. We can develop plug-in hybrids, electric cars, and hydrogen cars at the same time.

Theoretically if we could find a way to get hydrogen without producing CO2 emissions in the process, hydrogen powered cars could be nearly perfectly environmentally friendly.

While the same is true of an electric car recharged by renewable energy such as solar, it's not an easy prospect to get enough renewable energy to power both a house and recharge a car.

If we can develop both electric cars with renewable energy and hydrogen powered cars with a green source of hydrogen, that would be an ideal diversification of our power and transportation systems.
