I like Nasdaq: HYGS. As a fuel cell maker they not only have revenues but they are also profitable. Fuel cells are a great idea. However , I think that it may be 50 years before a a significant percentage of cars use them. Hybrid vehicles would be cheaper in the short term. There are quite a few barriers to a hydrogen based support system and to use natural gas or a liquid fuel involves expensive and complicated conversion technologies. Near term the market for them is still good in stationary power supplies for critical applications. I guess public transit, ie. city busses would be first to use them for a fleet application where they could store the fuel. Also there would be a need for trained support mechanics ect.
Brief power interruptions are often caused by electrical switching by utilities. They sometimes have to take a line out of service or a generator shuts down unexpected. I'm sure that with computers now it is more of a problem than it once was. The best solution is to use a UPS or save your files regularily.
