You should read that article. If it's true, that's one neat piece of kit!
Steve,
Just been to Luxembourg, where I saw a fuel sell bus!
Great idea, just need to reduce price I gather.
Gonna read article now

Ho Humm. Trouble with fuel cells, is that you need to produce the hydrogen.. This normally uses electricity to turn water in to hydrogen and oxygen,
so it's actually more inefficient that a petrol engine, and produces more green house gasses...

There is a trial of fuel cell busses at the moment in London. They hiss like crazy!

Biodiesel.
Its the only way

to the people who knock the fuel cells, bear in mind that by having all the pollutant emissions in one place (at the power station) it is easier to
clean the emissions than it would be to have 10 million individual catalytic converters. Plus, as already said, when nuclear fuels are more prevelant,
it will be a LOT less polluting overall.
There is a wee bit in Focus magazine about his bike. They mention that they are testing out a small plant for producing hydrogen cleanly that can fit
in the corner of your garage, giving you your own re-fuelling point.
Cant remember the details though.
