@riggs7sct It doesn't matter how you get your electricity. The average is going to involve significant amounts of fossil fuels. In fact, without the use of large-scale energy storage, such as hydrogen for that purpose, it will always involve significant amounts of fossil fuels.

In reality, #hydrogen is needed even to get BEVs to zero emissions.

@Hypx @riggs7sct It's in fact doubtful, if EVs are going to be the last word, pushing hydrogen tech out of the way.

[From 2021:]
"BMW is hydrogen's biggest proponent among Germany's carmakers, charting a path to a mass-market model around 2030. The company also has one eye on shifting hydrogen policies in Europe and in China, the world's largest car market.

The Munich-based premium player has developed a hydrogen prototype car based on its X5 SUV, in a project already partly funded by the German government.

Jürgen Guldner, the BMW vice president who heads up the hydrogen fuel-cell car programme, told Reuters the carmaker would build a test fleet of close to 100 cars in 2022."

Focus: German auto giants place their bets on hydrogen cars

Battery power may be the frontrunner to become the car technology of the future, but don't rule out the underdog hydrogen.

@ArenaCops @Hypx @riggs7sct isn’t that because they missed their timing on EV, way behind China

@Kaetchi @Hypx @riggs7sct Nope, German auto producers have been exploring & researching on hydrogen fuel cells as the more promising alternative to fossil fuels for a long time, while all of a sudden, following Russian fossil-fuels mob boss Putin's aggression against Ukraine & his extortive attempts to force the free world to its knees, having become too dependent on dirty/bloody Russian fossil fuels led to a rude awakening & realization, that this is the time to free from mob boss Putin's fuels of despotism & turn to climate- & humanity-friendlier renewable fuels.
