GM’s top EV battery guru, Andy Oury, believes we could switch to a hydrogen-based economy in the future, if we could build enough renewable energy to run it. That’s because – as Oury is at pains to point out – the lithium that currently powers electric vehicles, and other batteries, is almost as abundant as hydrogen anyway.
