Great Looking Car !
But what a screwed-up web-page to try and leave a comment on.

However... I left the following comment but had to leave out the links.

I left the comment for the person who seems to think H2 fuel isn`t doable cost wise !

Systems Engineering, Modeling, and Analysis

Government and industry research and development projects are reducing the cost as well as the environmental impacts of hydrogen production technologies.

Government and industry research and development projects are overcoming the barriers to efficient hydrogen distribution.

Learn more from the U.S. Department of Energy Hydrogen, Fuel Cells & Infrastructure Technologies Program Web site.

=================================================

The link to the page below describes how the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) uses simulation models
for developing renewable hydrogen systems.

Such models, when fully developed and verified against operational data, can be invaluable tools for understanding the operational characteristics of renewable hydrogen systems.

http://www.nrel.gov/hydrogen/systems_engineering.html

NREL is testing integrated electrolysis systems and investigating options for improved designs that will lower capital costs and enhance performance of the naturally varying power input from renewable sources to the electrolyzer.


The images/photo_renewable_resources.gif near the bottom of the page displays how Renewable resources can be used to supply hydrogen and electricity for several end-use applications .

This graphic displays various configurations.

A corn stalk and biomass pyrolysis graphic is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen storage tank.

The tank is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen fuel pump at a local fueling station.

The fuel pump is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen-fueled vehicle.

Another scenario depicts a wind turbine that is connected via an electric line to an electrolyzer that is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen storage tank.

The tank is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen fuel pump at a local fueling station.

The fuel pump is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen-fueled vehicle.

The hydrogen storage tank is also connected via hydrogen piping to a fuel cell and engine, which is connected via
an electric line to the electric grid.

Other renewables (solar, geothermal, and hydro) are connected via an electric line to short-term energy storage tanks or the electric grid.

The electric grid is connected via an electric line to a fueling station electrolyzer that is connected via hydrogen piping to a hydrogen fuel pump.
