Hydrogen fuel cells have the same type of problems ethanol does. The current largest source of hydrogen is....fossil fuels!!! (natural gas, to be specific). Using electricity to make hydrogen is *hugely* inefficient. It's a much better (and more efficient) use of electricity to charge batteries in electric cars. Hmmm, an electric Westfalia. Range: 40 miles. ;) So, the real answer, is, again, to use less. J > Has anyone on this list (or elsewhere) got a hydrogen fuel engine patented > which will fit our Westphalia needs?
