Honda like JCB are making great strides into the future use of hydrogen.
That's bloody excellent news, especially if Honda have cracked the longevity issue that's been problematic for earlier HFC designs. I'm still not convinced about its applicability for many private motor cars, but that's not a problem, we don't need a single 'one size fits all' solution. As the article says the implications for HGV, static power gen, and marine/aerospace are potentially a game changer.
I see it as very encouraging and now maybe have a little better understanding of why Honda and Nissan have been courting of late.
Another agreement that Honda (Cells) have going (long term) is with GM in the States and they are making good progress and the GM side in particular are producing portable (trailer sized) Hydrogen cells capable of producing up to 100kW for plug in EV's in remote arears which of course needs addressing quickly for sales of cars to progress on the bigger continents, out with the financial problems of folk affording one in the first instance but it will come in time.
I can't see one in the South Hams yet a while..
