In the opinion of the Tesla CEO, hydrogen energy storage is futile. to me CNBCElon Musk has made it clear that he is against hydrogen storage, because it requires the use of larger tanks. This is because the deposits needed to store the element must be larger than those needed to store electrical energy, for example.

In fact, in 2020, he said that fuel cells are like "ridiculous sales" and that hydrocarbons and electrolysis are not natural. In his opinion, when breaking down hydrocarbons, fossil fuels remain a problem, and electrolysis is not as efficient as it is claimed.
