Default Re: Honda Plans Hydrogen Fuel Cell Car in 3 to 4 Years

Sweet!

It has also developed a home “energy station” that generates hydrogen from natural gas to allow owners to refuel on their own driveway.
Now we're getting somewhere!

That is going to be the ONLY way we can get hydrogen vehicles on the road... to let people fuel at home, work, or in the neighborhood using natural gas, electrolysis, or whatever. No need to truck or pipe it to stations, using more energy. Make the fuel where it will be used!

Also, it's a good solution to the "But there's no infrastructure!" argument/catch 22 ("there's no demand for the infrastructure... because there's no place to fill up... because there's no demand...etc).

What I'd like to know is, how would that vehicle store hydrogen on-board? I'll have to go to some more reading on this. Is any info available on the Honda website?
