Reply To: Hydrogen cars to overtake electric, says expert

I think long term future should be electric. If house building regulations where changed that all New Build houses have solar panels and storage facility, this would make the charging of E.V vehicles a much cleaner and cheaper option, alleviating the need for more power stations. The vast majority of car journeys are of low mileage ones i.e commuting to/from work, an overnight charge from storage panels would suffice for the next days use. Inevitably this would not suit all but would greatly reduce the running costs of daily commuting and fleet cars, also the cost to the environment. There is more to come yet from E.V batteries in the form of the IFbattery technology This could be a very interesting project. The future is bright but does need switching on
