interesting comments at the end of the first article applicable to all manufacturers
"The current bump in the road Panasonic officials are mentioning is the high price of their invention. Their main goal is to figure out how to implement fuel cells on a large scale while lowering the total costs.
Its green technology with a life expectancy of up to 15 years, worth 2.7 million yen (about $30,000/ €22,308) is still far from becoming popular, despite the beneficial governmental support it is presently experiencing.
Even if such an innovation would help consumers decrease their energy bill, Panasonic still has a lot of work ahead until it manages to guide Japan's steps on the right path to energy independence."
