For the prototype, it uses electricity from the grid. In production, it
could power itself - or not. The inventors proposed a portable, truck
mounted system that could be taken to various sites, so they are mostly
thinking of self powered. I don't know the amount of energy required to

Sorry if I offended, I didn't mean to.
What I mean by hand-waving (though this definition is a bit rough):

I'm all for snagging energy from the waste stream, but pressure and heat
require energy input. Where will it come from? And how does that input

I have two reactions
This is, and I think, will be changing. Technology moves forward.

No transition fuel needed. As people who use energy realize the cost factor
fossil fuel will die and renewables will thrive. My case in point is over the
last couple of years we have switched from natural gas for heating and cooking.

Was not linear. A full 50% of that battery improvement was in the last year.
And the 20-to-1 improvement turned a 1900's 20 mile car into a very

Perhaps some day this will be true. However, the major 'biofuel' we produce in
the USA is ethanol and numerous studies indicates that the way we produce
ethanol
I don’t remember the technology.
The switch from H2 to gasoline and back was seamless.
It was never made available to the public. It was only for technology
demonstrations.

Ah. Direct injection H2. (Essentially a Diesel engine running hydrogen.)
Thus, the low octane (MON) doesn't matter.
Most definitely not a converted vehicle.
100 of these vehicles produced in total. This beast got only 16.9 MPG on
gas, 4.7 MPG on H2.
