Johnny Bacigalupo and Rob Hussey have been hit with a £17,000 bill to fix their Tesla after it was damaged in the rain - they have been told to pay even if they say it's not their fault
Solar electric was worse than hydro, or just about anything else, and more expensive per watt, as well. Decades went by, the cells got more efficient and cheaper production techniques, and suddenly they were a competitive option. None of that changes that they were, initially, a very bad choice, and only made sense if money wasn’t a factor for the person installing it.
The same goes for hydrogen. Maybe it will be big in the future, but as it stands now it isn’t an option for many people.

Solar got cheap and then it became widespread. You are witnessing the same thing happen with hydrogen now.
