You see, the high cost of hydrogen manufacturing, fuel-cell stacks, and the development of hydrogen fuel stations is some of the key hurdles facing FCEVs today. Aside from these, there’s the issue of safety, as hydrogen is very reactive in its pure state which demands advanced and expensive transportation and handling machinery.
