I had to laugh today, as we often get dragged in these discussions at work, I sat through an extended rant from a born again EV apparatchik who spent what seemed like hours telling us how hydrogen vehicles / transport could never work. It was probably just a few minutes.
At the end he justified his position by telling us about his past experiences, back when he converted his 4WD to LPG! :
Back in the old OPEC fuel crisis days, Aussies turned to LPG for a large chunk of the vehicle network in the space of just 2 or 3 years, some of us might still be driving LPG vehicles!
If we think we can wait while 85% of the world's vehicle network converts to EV, then well and good, but it's not happening in a decade, or two decades or even three decades without a huge consumption of resources.
