Small British company RiverSimple demonstrated the prototype for a two-seated hydrogen powered vehicle that might start production in 2013. What I like is that they plan not to sell it, but to lease it for about $315 per month, including fuel. What might be blocking them is that they are backed by Sebastian Piech of Porsche-fame.
About Willem
Willem Boersma was trained as a chemical engineer, works in software development and is interested in new technologies. He believes that the Dow Jones saw three periods of more or less continuous rise in the 20th century. From 1900-1920 because of developments in transportation. From 1945-1965 because of developments in productivity. And from 1985-2000 because of developments in information technology. He is convinced that the next rise will start somewhere around 2015 and will be due to developments in sustainable technology. Until that happens, he is looking for evidence of the opposite.
