minus-squareBastingChemina@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·2 years agoHydrogen is a pain to store and work with. Even on rocket engine that is worth millions it’s almost impossible to avoid leaks. On the other hand gas can be carried in a plastic bottle and electricity is already available everywhere. I don’t see any future where hydrogen car become mainstream.

You can’t just use normal materials to contain high pressure hydrogen - the molecules are so small that it seeps through steel and turns it brittle.
