Currently, renewable hydrogen may be produced from water by electrolysis with either low efficiency alkaline electrolyzers that suffer 50–65% losses, or by more efficient acidic electrolyzers using expensive rare platinum group metal catalysts (Pt). Our new HER catalyst, Ni 5 P 4 , has the strong potential to overcome this challenge.

And oil only seems cheap. When our country was attacked at Pearl Harbor, no one believed we could build 30,000 planes and tanks in just one year. And no one asked what it would cost. That helped us become the world’s greatest industrial power. It helps that the auto industry will be building more efficient new vehicles.

All the other budget e-bikes under $800 use a 36V system and thus suffer from weaker power. It’s hard to find a better combination of low cost and high performance anywhere in the e-bike market right now.

For some context on what you’re about to see, a brief callback to a year ago last August, when I predicted what was in store for 2022: It’s possible, even likely, that Tesla will build some sort of Tesla Bot by sometime next year, as Musk says. And it is expected to cost much less than a car—much less than $20,000 would be my guess.
