Still think that H2 Fuel cell, or worse, H2 ICE cars is going to happen before long? Here’s one more piece of evidence that your reality is seriously distorted. #H2EV #H2FC #Hydrogen #EnergyTransition
“The 22 filling stations operated by H2 Mobility were all built for passengers cars only and therefore ‘no longer meet today’s technical and economic requirements’”

More than a quarter of Germany’s hydrogen refuelling stations will be permanently closed by the end of June

From January through November, Toyota sold 1,702 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles worldwide #LosingBet #H2EV #Hydrogen https://insideevs.com/news/745570/toyota-fcev-sales-november-2024/
@dans @mackaj It’s not rocket science. For #BEVs to succeed, you can build upon an existing power distribution system. For #H2EV, you not only have to balance vehicle supply and demand, but also create a new infrastructure network, while balancing supply and demand. Expensive, risky, and extremely difficult to get right at scale.
Price hike | Hydrogen vehicle drivers to be charged 33% more for fuel at majority of H2 filling stations in Japan

Rising operating costs and global inflation blamed for higher prices at 96 of country’s 161 refuelling stops

ANALYSIS | It is now almost 14 times more expensive to drive a Toyota hydrogen car in California than a comparable Tesla EV

The state’s largest H2 fuel supplier has hiked its pump price to $36 per kg across all 37 of its filling stations

The world market for fuel cell electric vehicles is small and not growing exponentially. Not even in South Korea #H2EV https://bird.makeup/users/gnievchenko/statuses/1666815455896670211
Not the trend #Hydrogen proponents like to see. More than half of #H2 stations in the UK are closing and the total number of #H2EV cars is in decline https://www.hydrogeninsight.com/transport/two-of-londons-three-hydrogen-filling-stations-will-close-this-month-due-to-insufficient-demand/2-1-1445060
Two of London's three hydrogen filling stations will close this month due to insufficient demand

Move by ITM joint venture Motive Fuels leaves it with only two H2 pumps in the UK — down from eight last year — as the company refocuses on refuelling trucks

@Hypx @thistimeforsure I cannot talk for “people”. Personally, I just bought my 3rd BEV, not because I’m a Luddite, but because #h2ev is in practice no alternative yet – at least for me. Feel free to buy a hydrogen car yourself, though. I hear the driving experience is just as great as that of a BEV.
In case you’re still into the #h2ev myth, here’s an image of an 850 L tank that can store about 4,2kg #hydrogen at 60bar. This will take your #fuelcell passenger car about 400 km (about 25 liter of fossil fuels). #Hydrogen combustion would take you far less yet https://www.mahytec.com/en/compressed-hydrogen-storage/
