Amidst California’s ongoing efforts to promote environmentally friendly transportation and the changing landscape of hydrogen fuel infrastructure, Toyota has announced a dramatic rebate of up to $40,000 off MSRP for the 2023 Toyota Mirai.

No you are obviously lying, with no shame. I cannot believe this bullshit. How can you have the same efficiency for making hydrogen then converting to electric at car motor be equal as having electric in the first place delivered via cables? There’s no way you are not trolling.
Because it’s all electrochemistry? Have you even looked a fuel cell diagram? It is basically anodes and cathodes turning chemical energy into electricity. Just like a battery.
In fact, it arguably IS a battery. Hence why FCEVs are also EVs.
You cannot make hydrogen via electrolysis and come out equal on the other end. You just cannot. If you spend energy on making hydrogen, transport that hydrogen, have the cell convert it back to electric, you WILL have losses as compared to getting the electricity you used for electrolysis and transport it via cables to car. You cannot beat that for efficiency, and that’s without the whole hydrogen transport and manufacture infrastructure. That all adds up to losses and carbon released in the air. This level of misrepresenting reality is surreal
You cannot charge a battery and come out equal either. But losses can be minimized in both cases. Transportation via pipelines is also analogous to transporting electricity via wires. Both have losses, but it can be minimized.
Like I said, the idea is basically the same as battery swapping, except the battery in question is a chemical fluid that can be move around like it was electricity.
I’m not sure you understand how small the losses are to transport electricity from source to car battery. You cannot beat it for efficiency and you will pollute more just so others which are clearly NOT YOU get more money and power and control over people. That’s it. It’s about money and against our safety on this planet, since the hydrogen bullshit pollutes more. It’s anti-green by default and no amount of washing will change that.
Losses from pipelines aren’t very large either. At long distances, this is actually less than what you will experience from wires.
Like I said, the entire process of making and using hydrogen is analogous to battery swapping. You have to think of the battery as being this fluid that can be moved around to where it needs to go, effectively replacing wires. But the end result is basically the same.
