Your biggest criticism about BEVs was the battery's rare earth minerals / metals which are terrible for the environment to mine

I have some bad news for you about the solar and wind farms that will be required to do this... the amount of energy required to manufacture solar and wind is more than the finished product ever produces across its entire lifespan. And they require a ton of the rare earth minerals / metals.

And you're just converting it to hydrogen which we lose energy on, and then lose again when converted for its final use...


This is literally worse than BEVs, I'm sorry.

This is why I'm confident hydrogen will be important in our energy mix, but it will be a specialty fuel for specialty applications where we cannot escape the needs of hydrocarbon energy density. Cars are not in this class.
