I agree with your comment on the electric car part.   Battery tech, just isn't there and won't be for a while.  Hydrogen scares people.  (Hindenburg)  So until they get the safety concerns around Hydrogen figured out, electrics are just for people that need to feel good about doing something to save the environment.  The recharge time is too long and the range is too short.  Not to mention check out the replacement cost on the batteries some time.
