@RogerMoore - the 350kW are being deployed in Europe not for Fuel (sorry Fool) cells but for EVs. You can read all about it here: https://electrek.co/2016/10/18/new-ultra-fast-charging-350-kw-stations-evs-europe-audi-bmw/
Elon Musk has indicated that even these high capacity charge stations will not match the upgraded Tesla Supercharger stations that Tesla intends deploying.
Hydrogen is a lame duck for cars - might be applications for trucks and buses but even there battery buses are the go and Tesla is working on trucks as we speak. Toyota have acknowledged they are getting left behind in the Battery EV area and despite resistance for years they have now set up a division to accelerate battery EV vehicles - headed up by some of their most prominent people (Akio Toyoda, grandson of the company's founder Kiichiro Toyoda, has been at the helm of the world's largest automaker since 2009. He will head the company's electric vehicle planning department along with Executive Vice Presidents Mitsuhisa Kato and Shigeki Terashi). Read all about it here:

Anyone who thinks hydrogen is in this race has rocks in their head. The infrastructure costs are prohibitive and would have to be underwritten by governments and the rollout timeframe is mind boggling to service the global fleet. This hydrogen post is nonsense from the point of view of a competing technology.
