How can a company never make a profit for over 50 years and still be around? How can it still find investors? FuelCell Energy is that company, and its continuing existence, like that of other perpetual money losing hydrogen fuel cell firms Ballard Power and Plug Power, is deeply perplexing. … [continued]

This is the year that the hydrogen bubble pops, especially for transportation, but increasingly for all hydrogen for energy plays. One of the firms on my hydrogen death watch is Plug Power, which has managed to lose $3.12 billion of other people’s money since 2010, about $200 million a year … [continued]

As Mark Twain is reported to have said, history doesn’t repeat but it rhymes. Trump 2.0’s actions are very much rhyming, albeit discordantly, and with a dismal period from the past of the United States’ proclaimed great enemy, China. Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution, launched in 1966 and lasting until 1976, … [continued]

A rule of thumb I’ve been applying for a while is to look at what is succeeding in China in terms of clean technology. It tries everything that’s potentially viable domestically and fierce competition weeds out the winners from the losers. And on battery-electric buses vs hydrogen buses, and battery-electric … [continued]

For several months I’ve been digging through what’s going on with a Canadian transit ‘think’ tank, CUTRIC, and why it’s pushing hydrogen buses into city plans across the country. It keeps claiming hydrogen buses have been a success and are cheap, but cities keep canceling their plans for them as … [continued]

A sign of a great city is that the rich take public transit. Well, not really. They take light rail and subways. But they don’t take buses. In many cities, light rail systems attract a more affluent ridership compared to buses, highlighting a persistent disparity in public transit usage. Studies … [continued]

Over a couple of the last months of 2024, part of my time was spent looking at the bizarre situation of the Canadian Urban Transit Research and Innovation Consortium (CUTRIC). That’s resurfaced, as the Mississauga hydrogen bus trial is going forward despite having zero merit, and CUTRIC’s founder and head … [continued]
