I suspect energy companies and their special interests will fight against it by getting their paid off politicians to hamstring such technology through over regulation...so as conservatives we should keep a close eye on home hydrogen production and help clear the way for individual energy independance in the future.
It's almost the stuff of science-fiction, imagining a world where we no longer think much about our energy production/consumption. It seems like a very real possibility, but someone is going to make sure that we still pay for it. Like the recent talk of road taxes by-the-mile, the government will probably be the first in line...
