Reply #3: SB 76 (The HH bill) would not have passed without Democratic support [View All]

It is not an "Ahhnold" thing.

This is the first phase of the program and it's only one of several programs advancing alternative automotive fuels is California.

Absurd cost??? When will the cost of the alternative fuel (gasoline) become absurd???

I personally do not think that hydrogen vehicles are going to play a significant role in future personal transportation - but for essential services (police, ambulance and other emergency vehicles) and public transit in areas not served by electric rail systems, they will find their niche.

But to do that, they need the essential infrastructure (like hydrogen filling stations).

Here's some FAQs about California's Hydrogen Highway program...

and finally, after the next election cycle, Ahhhnold will be known as the former governor of California, but the HH program will continue long after he's gone.
