If they can produce powdered hydrogen for use in automobiles, it will wipe out the EV vehicles quickly.

Hydrogen Power Isn’t as Green as It Looks
The gas can contribute to climate change. It’s prone to leak dangerously and often dirty to produce.
Hydrogen production today is dirty and energy-intensive. Methods exist that could virtually eliminate the greenhouse-gas emissions, but there’s a more fundamental challenge: Hydrogen itself contributes to climate change when it leaks into the atmosphere.
Scientists have long known that hydrogen triggers indirect warming effects in the atmosphere. As the smallest possible molecule, it is difficult to contain. More, the latest research reveals that—depending on time frame—hydrogen’s warming power is two to six times as great as previously recognized.
