And here we go. If the storage problem is an issue, how are all these h2 cars getting refueled? And how is the h2 getting to them? And how is it stored before shipping?

It's not a problem. At all.

“It’s a problem” is not the same as “it is impossible.”

Likewise, “It’s possible to ship and store H2” is not the same thing as “it’s not a problem to ship and store H2”.

Meanwhile, the presumed "problem" was "preventing adoption", yet my counter point invalidated your statement. H2 is a success. It's stored. It's usable, in consumer driving applications. It's being refueled by consumers, right now, world wide.

It's not a problem. At all.

The more of a problem something is, the less it gets used. Showing some use doesn't disprove it being a problem. At all.

And nobody said "preventing" adoption, since that's easy to misinterpret.

It's reducing adoption a lot, compared to what it would be if hydrogen was as easy to store as butane or kerosene.
