#Oil giant #BP is killing 18 #hydrogen projects, chilling the industry
BP has been a supporter of hydrogen. BPs #venturecapital arm invested in several #greenhydrogen startups, including #ElectricHydrogen and #AdvancedIonics. Earlier this year, BP said it would develop "more than 10" hydrogen projects in the U.S., Europe, and Australia. Now scaling back, saying it'll develop five to ten projects. The company is keeping quiet about which ones will receive the green light.

Here's an even better idea: Have ubiquitous hydrogen refueling infrastructure. Now, everything refuels in 5 minutes at the same cost. You won't need 3 separate networks for each type of charging either (4, if you include a battery swapping network). You can even refuel HGVs with the same system.
