Hydrogen Now Available For Indian Cars

Here's one of many reasons why the future of this country isn't looking so bright (so I don't "gotta wear shades"); while we drag our feet and put forth a bunch of foaming skepticism about alternative energies, in other parts of the world they just go ahead and DO it.  But it looks like we're on a road to nowhere with the moronic claims that celulosic ethanol is the 'great white hope'...  It seems, however, that India isn't inhibited by foolish claims and myths which can ultimately be traced back to Exxon/Mobil:

Eden handed Indian hydrogen dispensing station contract Hythane Company, a subsidiary of Australian firm Eden Energy, has been selected by Indian Oil Corporation to supply and install the first public hydrogen dispensing station in India to fill vehicles running on either hydrogen or hythane.

Hythane Company was awarded the contract - which was signed at Indian Oil's R&D facility at Faridabad, near Delhi, this week - after beating rival bidders from Europe and America.

The $1 million retail fuel outlet will be installed at one of Indian Oil's petrol/natural gas refuelling stations in Delhi.

"This is a hugely significant milestone in Eden's bid for global leadership in hydrogen fuel technology as it means Eden has now been fully accepted by 'India Incorporated' to help drive its hydrogen based cleaner fuel emission objectives," commented Greg Solomon, Eden Energy's executive chairman.

The dispensing station is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of 2008.

Two other hythane bus demonstration projects are also being undertaken by Eden in Gujarat and Mumbai this year.

Oh well, at least this should lighten the global demand for petrol a tiny bit...maybe our gas prices will drop by a half-cent!

It really saddens me that most of the innovation in cleaner fuels is happening outside the United States.

Me too, humble. It's downright sinful. China is now looking into hydrogen as well. If China establishes themselves as the hydrogen capital of the world before we do (which looks likely) they will leave us in the economic dust.

I used to hate growing up...now I'm glad it's happening. Should I be worried about that? *IRONY*
