Comments by "Luredreier" (@Luredreier) on "Why Hydrogen Engines Are A Bad Idea" video.
Ok, but what about that hybrid hydrogen rotary engine + a fuel cell + a hybrid approach like with hybrid gasoline cars with a electric engine and batteries etc? You could make it a plug-in hybrid with a hydrogen tank and simply connect a garden hose to the car as well as electricity to generate hydrogen through electrolysis. The issue there would probably to cool it down enough or create enough pressure to store it efficiently... But assuming that issue could be solved, would something like that make sense in your view? The hydrogen could then go to either the rotary engine or the fuel cells as desired. Allowing a pure gasoline drive, a hybrid-gasolin/hydrogen drive (using hydrogen mixed in with the gasolin for instance), a pure hydrogen drive (using just hydrogen in both the fuel cell and the rotary engine for maximum (more or less green) performance, a eco mode (just hydrogen fuel cell + plug in electricity) or pure electric (just plug-in electricity). That many options gotta be usefull. If the engine can also be made to work with other substances it might even be of use to the likes of a military, since hydrogen can be made on the spot without drilling for oil as long as you have power (from say a solar panel) and a river or some other source of water.
