German car makers are getting hyped about hydrogen

Audi and Mercedes-Benz are the latest to jump on the H2 train.

Meanwhile, here in the US, General Motors has joined up with the US Army to test how suitable fuel cell EVs are for military applications. If you live in California, you can even buy a fuel cell EV, although residents of other states might want to wait a while until publicly accessible H2 filling stations become a reality. California has even increased the subsidy available for a fuel cell EV—up to $6,500 on top of any federal tax incentive—in order to hasten the uptake of this technology.



Not everyone is convinced H2 fuel cells are the answer, though. Elon Musk is well known to be dismissive of the technology, and lots of other people have pointed out that it's less efficient to use electricity to produce H2 and store it than it is to just use electricity to charge a battery. But the much quicker refueling times—similar to a hydrocarbon-fueled vehicle—compared to battery EVs mean we should expect to see more fuel cell announcements in the future.



Toyota, Honda, Hyndai, BMW, GM, Lexus, Audi and Mercedes will all have Vehicles out by 2020. The revolution is starting. Hydrogen is the future. From Cell Phones, Laptops, Power Plants to Automobiles. EV's have been a failure. Half a percent marketshare in 7 years with a full infrastructure buildout. The long charging time has taken away the freedom of having an automobile. Now is the time to invest in HYDROGEN STOCKS for long term growth.
