What happened to the “hydrogen highway”? In 2004 California announced plans for a “hydrogen highway”. Twenty years later the industry is shifting overwhelmingly to electric vehicles. The hydrogen highway is littered with shortages, high prices, and faulty equipment.

It needs to be killed with a stake through its heart.
We have wasted FAR TOO MUCH MONEY on that boondoggle. It failed. Now stop throwing good money after bad.
It was always a bad idea. The economics of it NEVER made sense. Smart engineers and physicists have been saying this for 30+ years.
But we gave it a chance…it failed. Now STOP WASTING MONEY ON IT.
99 hydrogen passenger vehicle sold in US Q2 2024. 73 Mirai and the rest Hyundai.
