Hi Flare. Just watched the utube vid, fuel cell v battery. It makes sense until you get into the real world. Grid system is not prepared and will need untold £/$ billions to upgrade, forget renewables as the sun does not always shine and the wind does not always blow so fossil fuel power stations will also be needed as backup, doubling costs. Auto manufacturers have been trying to make cars lighter and lighter for decades, so where is the sense in carting around batteries giving an extra 20% in total weight, and constantly losing efficacy with ever charge and the massive cost of replacement. My bet is that the boffins will find a way of cheaply breaking down water into h and 2o. When that happens batteries powered EVs will go the way of the horse. ATB Speedy
