Beijing Buses 95% Electric, Hydrogen Buses Dwindling, Refueling Stations Closing
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]

Hydrogen Buses Hurt The People They Are Meant To Help
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]

Canadian Transit “Think” Tank Presenting Fluff & Denials To Mississauga Council
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]

Toyota Promoted Its Hybrid While Funding Climate Deniers
What do you think of what you’re presented with an image of the Toyota Prius hybrid? Like most people, your associations are probably connected with protecting nature and reducing resource depletion. You’re also somebody who recognizes that our climate has been altered by humans through fossil fuel use and their … [continued]

Korean Hydrogen Explosions, Leaks, Auction Failure & Impeachment May Cause Pivot
The hydrogen atom is tiny. Getting enough of it in one place requires pressures found at three to seven kilometers under the surface of the ocean. Unsurprisingly, it leaks. As it’s an indirect greenhouse gas and an explosion risk, that’s a big problem. South Korea has been learning exactly what … [continued]

Poland’s Hydrogen Bus Plans Run Into High Hydrogen Prices
Recently 21 municipalities in Poland sent a joint letter to the federal government begging for big subsidies for hydrogen for energy. Reports indicate that the cities that had already contracted for hydrogen buses hadn’t bothered to include realistic costs of hydrogen in their cost cases. The ones that have them … [continued]
