You don't think expanding the electrical infrastructure would be a huge deal? It would require a lot more generation, than what is currently available at least in alberta. Where are you going to get the extra electric generation from?

Hydrogen is an engergy CARRIER, NOT an energy source, at least not here on Earth.

Electricity is also an energy carrier, not a source. What's your point? By that argument, electricity is not a good idea for cars either.
Also, i changed my statement to:
i could see electrical cars being a viable option in an urban setting only. Where you don't drive more than 100 - 200 km in a day. For those of us in north america or people you who like to go on road trips, etc, i just personally think that hydrogen will be a better option in the long run. Unless battery and charging technology gets a lot better. Right now electric vehicles are ahead of hydrogen power vehicles, in both distance and energy capacity. I just personally think that hydrogen has more room to grow, and will grow faster and out pace electrical vehicles in the long run.
