Steve has a good point on the hazzards to overcome on hydrogen. I think it will be a while. As far as solar panel: most RV solar panels out today give at best 4.5 -5.0 amp's max. at high noon. To power a coach of todayÕs standards off panels offered, it would take about 30-40 panels tied to a major regulator panel to just make out. You would have to fill the entire roof plus panels set all around the coach. There are some major universities working on perfecting solar cells. We need to work on making coaches with all the bennies with half the amperage.
