I only got 6/11, which is technically a pass
No cheating Mia Culpa -I got the number of Hydrogen vehicles on the road now wrong!
Quiz: How Much Do You Know About Hydrogen and Fuel Cells? | Department of Energy
I only got 6/11, which is technically a pass
"Land Rover - making mechanics out of everyday motorists for nearly 70 years"
Same here. I would query though the reliability of a website that uses volts to measure power! It makes you wonder just how good some of their other data is. Mind you some of the questions I really did not know the answer. For example, I knew about Goves' fuel cell, and that it was nineteenth century, but guessed 1879 not 1839.

7/11 and one was a guess I got right. Dates, etc were a complete guess.
If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
8/11 with a couple of good guesses.
04 L322 Vogue V8 - Work truck
07 Freelander 2 TD4 SE - The wifes
74 Leyland P76 Targa Florio - Aspen Green
91 Kawasaki GPZ900R
Previous LRs = 78IIa series - 81, 93, 95 RRC - D2V8
Not a lot of people happy to share their score? Did it again and got 9 Stuffed up "6. Globally, how many hydrogen fuel cell cars are on the road?" I said 5000 and its is/was 30,000
So much development happening. The Big ones are Ballard, Plug Power, Nikola and Doosan Fuel Cells ( In not particular order) Siemens and Bosch as well ......
BMW is "The BMW Group will now be manufacturing highly efficient fuel cell systems at its in-house competence centre for hydrogen. This technology is one of the core elements in the BMW iX5 Hydrogen and generates a high continuous output of 125 kW/170 hp. It teams up with an electric motor featuring fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology and a high-performance battery purpose developed for this vehicle to enable its powertrain to deliver 275 kW/374 hp."
Another Canadian company I did not know about is shouting out
Hydrogen cost-parity with diesel cut by up to eight years with new Loop Energy fuel cell - Loop Energy
I wonder if "Anglo American’s newly named nuGen™ hydrogen powered truck " is related to this news a few months ago "Ballard announces orders for 31 fuel cell engines to a leading global construction, electric power & off-road equipment manufacturer
VANCOUVER, CANADA – Ballard Power Systems (NASDAQ: BLDP; TSX: BLDP) is pleased to announce orders for 31 modules, totaling 3 MW of hydrogen fuel cell power, to a leading global construction, electric power, and off-road equipment manufacturer for testing and deployment in a variety of end-use applications. The modules are expected to be delivered in 2022 and 2023 to match planned integration, testing, and deployment schedules.

Some times it is join the dots with commercial in confidence clauses
Mothers day run in my PITA MG again. I love it and hate its failure to do 250km- Note on new report of how most EVs are actually doing promised ranges in EV thread
6 hours to get home- DOH- 2 hours charging - 1 hours in Colac at a 7kwh per hour charger gave me enough to get to Toquay to do 80% charge in about 40 minutes at a Fast Charge not owned by a person I won't name.
Colac really is PITA. Sat for an hour looking at 3 unused fast chargers I am not able use. Stopped by a Company/man I will not name. As an offended Navy Diver I refuse to buy that persons anything ever!
On the Bright Side I saw the Hydrogen car again. Noting it has just one refueling point in Victoria at present! Its range is 643ish km.
The skates are on happily in other Counties to Get Hydrogen used and likely moving soon.
It is highly likely we will be export hydrogen as hydrogen or as ammonia very soon. Mr Forrest via his money and imported ideas or my favorite Australian Perth based large scale Hydrogen pyrolysis company. Happy for it to be both of course!
Canada, Japan and France have already signed on to Our Perth version happily!
Korea in link below is making "Fewer than 1 per cent of the 6,000 cars Hyundai makes every day at its Ulsan plant in South Korea are powered by hydrogen." The Hydrogen Trucking side is running a bit faster. Hydrogen does make sense for the high distance sector in so many ways!
And my fishing, 4wd and touring replacement Disco of course!

EV range anxiety, you dont know what range anxiety is until you drive a dino 98 fuel V12 Jaguar - entertainment is watching the fuel gauge going down before your eyes, or changing tanks but the tank does not change an you got no usable dino fuel and then you stop.

Got one better or close perhaps? DDG warships range was long if at cruising speeds! Once all four boilers on my baby (now a dive wreak) took off for a high speed test run with a supply ship following for a top up. 3 days at full power used every last drop. It took a few days of rock and roll for our fuel pump to catch up
Wiki suggests "Over 5,000 nautical miles (9,300 km; 5,800 mi) at 18 knots (33 km/h; 21 mph)"
I know for a fact we could burn a LOT more a LOT faster
