    Losses stack up for hydrogen. It’s kinda of a bad battery and storage is dangerous. Fuel cells are bulky and fragile.

    Right now, it’s relatively viable because we get it as a petrolium byproduct. But that version doesn’t burn very clean.

    Once we’re using solar at home, it’s green, but you’re chewing through freshwater which isn’t ideal.

    Something like sodium ion batteries would be better is most ways. (Other than refilling cars in a gas station)
