I've never been too sure about hydrogen fuel cells as an energy source. It sounds like a really inefficient process to first spend energy to split water, use specialized containment for the diffused hydrogen and then have it recombine back into water. From what I've read, the thermodynamics don't add up.
But then again I'm no expert so I can be completely wrong.
Despite my reservations, If this actually works, then it could really change our model of energy production and consumption.
Kudos to the team.
