per Kg of H2.

And they've got the fuel cell down to around ~30 grams of platinum, from ~90 in the first models.

~50 kWh= 1 kg h2

And the 50 kWh will go down as electrolyzer efficiency rises. There are new electrolyzers in France that get >90% efficiency. But all of our "scientists" are either perfecting the latest drones or surveillance tech. So it goes.

You can cook and heat your house with H2 as well, and it's safer than natural gas and propane.
