    If we assume hydrogen is 100% efficient, the one improvement over battery electric vehicles, is no need for a battery. I know there’s a lot of debate about how recyclable batteries are, but we have limited global resources to produce batteries at scale.

      They still need a battery, but it can be smaller. But then you need the fuel cell, which is not exactly better in any way. Like super rare metals (Platinum) and less durable.
