I have just been speaking to a close relative who is a senior manager at a large data storage company, with large sites worldwide, he has told me they are looking at hydrogen, but at the moment it is new tech...apparntly the diesel units they use at the moment cost 50 million per site and are situated underground, which gives you a perspective on the size of the market...obviously that is a huge undertaking to swap those out, so as and when they need replacing...or implentation into new sites that a huge market .And they are aware of the need to move to greener energy....but just an insight into the logistics and costs these companys have to consider before signing off on deals this size...not a deramp, the opposite....i think the market is huge, and as allways patience is required...hope this helps some people understand the HUGE decicsions big companies have to make before investing in this tech....GLALTH.
