Fuel cells run on natural gas instead of oil-based liquid derivatives like gasoline or diesel fuel

Wasn't it ExxonMobil that recently announced fuel cell development for automotive transportation that uses gasoline? This would not require an infrastructure change...a significant impediment to the current fuel cell hopefulls. I believe there was a 10 year timeframe.

BTW my only investment that is leaving my OS stocks in the dust is FCL. Their Molton Carbonate fuel cells run on natural gas. The fuel cell is now going into production. There are plans for adding a turbine to make use of the waste heat for a combined efficiency of 75 + percent.

It has just had a run up so it may not be a good time to buy. The high price of NG seems to influence the stock.
