This provided hydrogen utopians with the world&#8217;s best-case scenario for transitioning to a hydrogen economy. Yet after a decade of hydrogen hype and fuel cell fever stoked by car and oil companies, few cars have arrived. None for sale. At one time there were 16 hydrogen cars in Reykjavik. As of July, that was down to 12. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eenews.net\/public\/climatewire\/2009\/07\/01\/1\">ClimateWire reports:<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;In the past years, teams from all the big car manufacturing companies visited us and said they intended to market fuel cell-powered hydrogen cars shortly after 2010,&#8221; said Bragi Arnason, a professor of chemistry at the University of Iceland in Reykjavik.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Three hydrogen buses once served regular Reykjavik routes. &#8220;The bus project has now been terminated; we are waiting for the next generation to be built,&#8221; Arnason said. Now Mitsubishi&#8217;s iMiev and Reva are poised to begin the viable zero-emission transition in Iceland.
