Hydrogen Vs Batteries Hydrogen cars have long ranges RANGE: 700+ km. REFUELING : In a few minutes. CHALLENGE: Few filling stations and expensive production method. ADVANTAGE: Hydrogen can store energy from renewable sources such as solar cells and wind turbines. Battery-powered cars get their energy from the grid RANGE: A maximum of 500 km. RECHARGING: 1-12 hours. CHALLENGE: Short range and very long charging time. ADVANTAGE: Communicate with the future grid, so the power can be as cheap as possible.
