One thing with the using solar to charge the car batteries that people are not addressing is the fact that most cars will not be plugged in while the sun is out. The Hydrogen idea is at least making the hydrogen while you are at work. Wind power will work day or night, but we end up with days of no wind, so no power. Any of these systems will end up with people loosing their garages for the equipment. Houses are just not built with the idea of space being dedicated to something of this nature. If you have a garage that is really just of to the side of the house, you can build a structure for this easily, but if you are like me and the garage is in front of the house, you can't. I appreciate the efforts, but I get annoyed with people who tout "Here is the solution to all are problems" when, what I consider, basic items are not even addressed.
