    That’s why I keep saying Europe should go for hydrogen fuel. We already have plenty of green energy that we need to store somehow. Instead of subsidising chinese battery makers, we should put serious money in hydrogen r&d

      We really shouldn’t. For every watt of electricity you produce, you’ll get a hydrogen-powered car only a fraction of the distance of a battery-powered car. People are already lamenting how all those batteries should be charged, adding another factor (that’s >1) to that equation will only make the transition even harder.

      Just build batteries in Europe.
