Hydrogen vs. Battery Electric Cars

Why would it make more sense to install a hydrogen station?  The only reason is if you excessive off-peak power generation (then again would you be able to create sufficient hydrogen and store it in this time).  It makes more sense to just store the excessive energy in batteries where you don't have to waste energy on cooling.

In general you would have to add 2 - 3 times as much electricity production to support the hydrogen stations.  It also makes sense to add solar to you house if you have a BEV.  This could offset a large portion of the added demand on the grid.

It may not make sense for everyone to drive a BEV atm, but as they get more prevalent there will be more charging stations as well as more apartments that offer vehicle charging solutions.
