Despite the recent progress, a number of myths around the use, power efficiency and cost of fuel cells still exist. Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the Universe but, on earth, it must normally be extracted from water or organic compounds. The cost of making fuel cell vehicles has recently dropped dramatically.
