2030: Fuel car cars powered by oceanic gardens?
Cheap, common fuel cell vehicles by 2030Reasonably priced fuel cell vehicles should be available by 2015 and become cheap and common around 2030 according Nabil Kassem, professor at Stockholm's Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).
According to AutoBlogGreen, "Prof. Kassem stated that fuel cells are the most promising technology for our energy future, a future some call the Hydrogen Society. He not only envisions hydrogen in cars, but believes that fuel cells will have applications in micro power plants, household appliances, and in heating and air conditioning units. On the issue of cost, Kassem said that the moment hydrogen starts being produced on a large scale, it will become cost competitive. How will we obtain it? Kassem referred to a Japanese project that wants to create "oceanic gardens" where solar energy would be used to create electricity and then hydrogen."

The Fuel Cell debate and associated costs is interesting but I just wonder why it always seems to be so far in the future .
I hope for all our sakes we can find better solutions to our current use of the car.
One interesting side note I was at a car show yesterday and was looking at an old metropiltean from 1958 with 38MPG and it seems we have gone backwards not forwards on the fuel efficiency in modern cars
