This is just a start, Hydro Quebec will expand production if demand comes.

I would buy one for my next vehicle (it will be a ways off), except my area will take a while to be covered, with the amount of driving I do I would not need to refill for several months, and I could still take it on cross country road trips without worrying too much about even stopping at a charge/gas station.

As it stands, I will not be buying any EV, you will have a very hard time convincing me otherwise, too many drawbacks to not enough range, ridiculously high charge times, expensive battery repairs, in addition to not being much better than a gasoline vehicle as far as ECO costs.

The entire world is gearing up to produce green Hydrogen in staggering quantities. It won't be used for wheeled vehicles though.

A prediction is not what will be, and that's all a market projection is.

Just a single government providing grants for h2 refueling infra can dramatically change things.
