What if all the vehicles now on the road in the United States were suddenly powered by hydrogen fuel cells? Stanford researchers say in a June 24 article in the journal Science that such a conversion would improve air quality, health and climate--especially if wind were used to generate the electricity needed to split water and make hydrogen in a pollutionless process. Why bother ?? Just use the electricity directly in the vehicle .. The only reason to promote this approach is to preserve the ability to tax liquid transportation fuels .. TPTB don't want ( you or me ) to have an electric vehicle and the ability to produce our own fuel .. Way too disruptive ..... That's why we're going to get bio-fuels and hydrogen stations .... EROEI has nothing to do with it .. Triff ..
