This is generates most of their profit. Tesla have cars with a million miles on their electric motors with no servicing. Of course, suspension, brakes will need servicing, but not major costs. EFCV have no gearbox, clutch and the whels are direct drive. What's not to like. For petrol heads, it's the lack of 'grunt' JCB has mfrd it;s own H2 fuel ICE, with promising results. Either Honda or Toyota are developing a H2 ICE, The mfrs will not go down without a fight, They still want to retain the 'expensive' servicing and spare parts of ICE.
Finally, GW deniers ( mainly OG vested interests, such as Republican lawmakers in USA who receive personal cash amounts to 'expand- the industry' ) need to be asked one question. 'What if you are wrong'. The answer is an inhospitable Planet, on which the human race will likely not survive. Run away GW. If GW deniers are right, and we do spend $trillions on restructuring all our energy requirements, we will have clean air to breath, no lung damaging particulates or carcinogens. Can they put a price on that.
I did not mention the Holy Grail of energy production. Dare I say it, oh, please, dare, dare ( apols to Blazing saddles), Nuclear Fusion. Not this decade, or next, but will come. There will not be a facility in our 'backyards', but transmission will be less of an eye sore, and more efficient in 2, 3 decades, and all wireless..
We can only hope that PHE BOD hs sufficient acumen and drive, to make DMG a working reality. I see the main plus of DMG as the means to remove the mountains of non recyclable waste plastic and tyres from our environment. Syngas, H2, char are profitable end products. For those of you who got through all of this, thnx.
It would be remiss of me not to mention that the contributors mentioned, all highly educated with Doctorates, Professorships, did not have the need to express that in their aliases, it was evident from their musings. Thanks.
VH, I have to get this in, as a sour kraut, your written English is excellent. I would point out one error, which many native English speakers make, and I know will help you, It is 'lose', not 'loose'. The latter is ill fitting, the former is not to retain ownership. GL, and get behind H2, you know it make sense.
