Hydrogen is coming but I can recall people talking about flying car and they are not here. Looking at any alternative fuel is going to be the way to get the fuel cells out in the market. Going back to using Methanol the project that Cellex tried Methanol they where using a technology called reforming. The technology had its problems but it worked. Now MHD Green is using a new technology direct methanol fuel cell or DMFCs. This address all the problems Cellex was having before they jumped to Hydrogen. I still think Hydrogen is going to happen but with the high costs to get it and to store it is going to be awhile before it has an impact in in the forklift market when products like methanol can be used NOW and at about 80% less cost than Hydrogen.
