Musk has called hydrogen fuel cells "extremely silly" and "fool cells," with his main critique being that hydrogen is too difficult to produce, store and turn efficiently to fuel, diverting attention from even better sources of clean energy.
I've seen a YouTube vid where Musk notes that hydrogen is a storage system, not a fuel per se, and making these same points about the inefficiency of electrolysis, storage, range, etc. If the Toyota people have a five minute recharge (hmm...), and the car doesn't cost north of $100K like Elon's battery-mobile, the greeniac zombies will be talking about how everyone should drive these new buggies. The fact is, just like electric vehicles, these will tax the already overburdened grid, and do so during peak use hours. However, as long as the lib zombies don't have to pay for the charging, they'll continue to use one or the other type of system.

Musk may be a government-funding leech, but he is correct on all these points.
