Fuel cell - been waiting for years to buy one (10kw or so) for my off grid place. I lost money in the fuel cell stock boom - start ups never came through
Last i heard GM's (they were in the lead when I was paying attention)units have struggled with overheats and fires in testing.
Fuel cells work very well with any energy one feeds it - propane has always been in the forefront (just needs 120 psi for storage)
too bad they cant keep them from overheating - Fuel cells also produce water as a by product --- win win for us off grid folks.
Like I said Ive been waiting a good 20 years cash in hand as well as investing in fuel cell start ups - maybe the gov't can do
better.........
this is one example what could happen when chemicals come in contact with aluminum (imagine aluminum tanks full of hydrogen) never mind the car crash -grin
