Daves idea is wonderful but the issues of safety would be a concern i.e. for the home owners. This would thus make H2 refueling stations still viable.

If hydrogen vehicles catch on even a little at first and Honda releases a home hydrogen fueling station, I can see a grass roots movement of a network of people that work together with other hydrogen vehicle owners wanting to travel longer distances on hydrogen. A hydrogen vehicle owner could plan long distance trips via this home network stopping at various homes along the way and paying the owner a small fee for the hydrogen.

Just think about it, a private network of refueling stations that are not dependent on foreign oil and the government has no control over (at least until the lawmaker & lobbyists do something about it).

A network of people helping people go green.

This a great idea and i hope the research continues we need people thinking outside of the box and dose anyone know the going rate for hydrogen.

RonGM1 lol too funny! Do you work for gm? sorry about your unemployed luck. If you worked for a company like honda you would still be working, and have a job with a future. American car companines got fat and lazy and will be a memory soon. The only people complaining are the ones who got beat and now have to play catch up to the japanese.

I am very happy to see the hydorgen Honda! I have one reservation, however; why not make hydorgen via solar rather than natural gas? From what I gather, converting natural gas to hydrogen creates alot of carbon dioxide, so why not solar? The US solar array idea in the AZ desert suppling 69% of the USA electricity could also be properly managed to produce hydorgogen at the same exact time!

Actually, the hydrogen is produced by natural gas. So, the home and the car are fueled by the same energy source. Clearly, this is only feasilbe now where there are refueling stations. That was true of gas-powered cars once too.

What a bad idea! Spend electic power to convert to hydregen which is explosive. I have also learned that it disapates over time when sitting unused. Also what do you do if you travel beyond your fuel limit. You don’t. You call a tow truck.
