Good thing Toyota invested so much in hydrogen! They’ll just keep lobbying to slow down adoption of electric vehicles and the addition of renewable capacity.

Hydrogen is good because deuterium enrichment has hydrogen as a byproduct. Hydrogen works if fusion power works. That's part of the long term justification for hydrogen tech.

If you don't buy that reason, then hydrogen is a strategy for big corporations to keep energy production centralized. Batteries can be charged with basic wind or solar systems. Hydrogen will always require industrial scale and logistics.
