Hydrogen cars flopped, but fuel cells are finding new life in trucks and boats.

From @theverge: "Mining trucks, cement mixers, and terminal tractors all seem like the perfect use of hydrogen fuel cells. But they run into the same challenges around price and fueling."

Hydrogen cars flopped? Did I miss the week where we tried making hydrogen cars?

@ScienceDesk@flipboard.social @theverge Once H2 conquers the large, the small-to-mid size will follow. There will be a lot of TCO, training, logistical benefits to use one approach for all. One thing is clear though the future will not be battery based https://muratk5n.github.io/thirdwave/en/2022/11/battery-electric.html
