GM,

You mentioned Global Fuel cells produce H as byproduct. From what I read, BMW was planning on using internal combustion engines that run on hydrogen.

The obvious question is, do fuel cells produce enough H and at a sufficient rate to feed an engine ? Or, at the very least, supplement the fuel tank ?

If this is the case (I'm really stretching this) SOFCs produce electricity to run all accessories and the byproduct runs the motor to make the vehicle go varoom ! There is no need for a H vending infrastructure nor concern over safety in storing H. All the required H will be produced and consumed within the same system without accumulating dangerous levels.

But hey, what do I know ?

Dingo.
