I don't think hydrogen will ever make it's way into any kind of consumer application. It's highly explosive, has 1/4 the energy density of gasoline by volume, it's hard to transport, hard to distribute etc. Maybe for industrial applications, but we've been burning stuff for our energy needs since the caveman days, maybe it's time to move on. The generation of nearly free energy should be the goal of man kind. With nearly free energy you can grow crops in the desert, desalinate ocean water, live independently, and solve all of humanity's problems.
