Why did fuel cell technology seemingly disappear as a possible alternative to gas/petrol in vehicles?
In: Technology
It didn’t. [South Korea is making it a big priority](http://www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20190117000468). Toyota and Honda make Fuel Cell cars. However, it isn’t worth selling cars in markets without Hydrogen fuel stations.
There is kind of a chicken and egg problem in selling H2 cars and making H2 fuel stations in a market. It’s not worth having a dealer infrastructure to sell cars if there are no fuel stations, and it isn’t worth building fuel stations if there are no cars in the market.
