How much does hydrogen gas cost if created with solar panels?


Well, how much? How many $ per kilogram or cubic foot? I don't see ANY prices in your graphics. You seem to think it is a good idea, so how much is it so we can compare with other sources?

How much would it cost today to build one of those nifty Honda Hydrogen Stations to produce enough hydrogen to power my fuel cell car for a daily 150 mile commute? How many KW of solar panels? I want to do it, how much will it cost?

Oh, BTW, we already know that hydrogen can power engines.
