    I remember reading about a bus network in Germany going full hydrogen - without anywhere to refuel. By the time they had the refueling stations (within a year), they had signed a new contract to get a new fleet of diesel busses, which arrived after the refueling stations were built. So they had 2 fleets of busses to use and guess which one they retired…

    Hopefully, this doesn’t go the same way.

    Edit: now that I’m done with the article, wow. This is awesome. Pity it’s proprietary (aka no opensource), but really great nonetheless. If this were hydrogen it would be even more amazing for the island.
