Better fill 'er up, honey - there's not another hydrogen station for 4000 miles
Wired reports that hydrogen cars are ready to go, but there's almost nowhere to get fueled up. While vehicles like the Honda FCX Clarity are ready for the mass market, finding a place to buy hydrogen is a real challenge. Apparently there are only 36 hydrogen fueling stations in the whole US, and 24 of those are in California.
Estimates vary wildly on how much it would cost to build out an infrastructure that would put most Americans within driving distance of a hydrogen station, with numbers coming in anywhere between $10 and $500 billion. Compare that to the $1.2 billion that's been spent on hydrogen by the US government in the five years since President Bush announced that the future belonged to hydrogen.
