EUOBSERVER / BRUSSELS - The European Parliament has called on the EU's executive to introduce measures to support the roll-out of a Europe-wide filling-station network for hydrogen-powered cars and develop common standards for the vehicles across all member states. MEPs almost unanimously adopted a report on Wednesday (3 September) drafted by members of the centre-right European Peoples' Party grouping in the parliament on hydrogen-powered vehicles. Hydrogen-powered cars are not zero-emission vehicles at all, warn green groups. The legislative report was adopted with 644 votes in favour, two against and 11 abstentions. MEPs believe a key support measure would be the development of common EU standards for the experimental transport concept.

the rest can walk, or fix up their old banger to run off wood gas, like they cobbled together during ww2.
until you burned up all the wood...
they're obviously going to try anything and everything before actually facing the music.
they're made that way... still conning most of the people, most of the time.
we have much work to do to turn this around, but reality is on our side, and will keep painting 'them' into ever tighter a corner, counting ever more on people not to inform and empower each other, 180° opposite direction from lying, ignorant government stooges. ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate."

A £5bn solar power plan, backed by a Jordanian prince, could provide the EU with a sixth of its electricity needs - and cut carbon emissions ... Europe is considering plans to spend more than £5bn on a string of giant solar power stations along the Mediterranean desert shores of northern Africa and the Middle East. ... Last week Prince Hassan bin Talal of Jordan presented details of the scheme - named Desertec - to the European Parliament. 'Countries with deserts, countries with high energy demand, and countries with technology competence must co-operate,' he told MEPs.

Its handling is similar to LPG and it can be stored as a liquid in low pressure tanks. Big difference with methane (very high pressures or cryo).
don't the cars run off some kind of hydrogen pellets? ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
