    Doesnt say how the hydrogen is produced. I believe today that is generally done with natural gas. Also no mention about the energy efficiency of this setup.

      Probably because the point is to burn less fossil fuels.

        Then they should mention how much fossil fuels they saved. Not mentioning it makes me suspicious. Hydrogen needs a lot of space to be stored, and it constantly leaks from any type of tank or pipeline. Not to mention the cost of producing hydrogen in the first place.

          Suspicious? Germany has been a world leader in reducing carbon emissions.

            Really? Germany is starting to use a lot of coal to generate electricity now, to replace gas and nuclear.

    Hydrogen cars are electric cars with extra steps. Is this also the case here, I.e. Does it carry a big battery?
